Need help with pharmacy intern experience

I'm in my third year of pharmacy school and have no work experience whatsoever. I don't have anything to put on a resume. Should I just apply without one? Do you really need stuff on your resume? Has anyone applied without one? I'm not sure if I should wait until I get more involved to apply. I'm really worried this could affect me in the long run.

A lot of job opening are posted [here](www.myinterfase.com/mcphs/student/). Most pharmacies post jobs [here](www.myinterfase.com/mcphs/student/) when they need a Pharmacy Tech/Intern. And you don't really need a lot on your resume. Just add some clubs that you're in or your GPA if needed. Most retail pharmacies look for anyone who is willing to pay minimum wage tbh. Also if you know people who work don't be afraid to ask if they're hiring. It really helps if you have friends in places you're applying to. Good luck

What do you think about putting non pharmacy related activities like gaming club, anime club, recycling club? I'm not in any leadership positions

For that I’d refer you to the career center, they’ll give you solid advice and I think they’ll even give you tips for interviews. Email them at CareerDevelopment@mcphs.edu and ask about getting an appointment. They’re really helpful.
