“I want to become a Pharmacy Assistant because I have a genuine interest in people’s health and I also want to learn about different medicines and medical subscriptions. I am someone who prefers to work in a customer-facing role, whereby attention to detail and accuracy are important.Furthermore, because the industry is growing due to the aging population, plus the fact that people are taking more of an interest in their health, this means I will always be learning within the role of Pharmacy Assistant. I am the type of person who wants to continually learn, grow and develop, and having researched the role, it is a strong match for my future career aspirations. So, to summarize, the role of a Pharmacy Assistant is something I want to do for the long-term because I not only get to make a difference to people’s lives, but I also get to continually learn and develop whilst working with other people as part of the pharmacy team.”
