Nice

did anyone here actually go through the application and interview process recently? I’d love to know what kind of interview questions they ask or what documents took the longest to sort out. It’d really help those of us still trying to find the best way to approach this.

well, I remember now that I went through the same process last year and what helped was regularly checking their website and calling the office for updates.

They can be really slow with responses. For anyone dealing with pain while working long shifts in the pharmacy, I found it useful once to buy co codamol 30/500 online after being recommended it by a colleague, it helped me manage better during those hectic days.
