The pharmacy residency application process can feel overwhelming, and competition continues to grow. You donât just want to matchâyou want to match with one of your top-choice programs.
After serving as a residency preceptor, residency program coordinator, and residency program director, Iâve reviewed hundreds of applications and interviewed countless candidates. Iâve seen talented students succeed, but Iâve also watched many strong applicants fall short because they didnât know how to present themselves effectively.
Pharmacy school prepares you to be an excellent clinician. It rarely teaches you how to market your experiences, write a compelling letter of intent, interview with confidence, or stand out in a competitive applicant pool.
This book is designed to bridge that gap.
Weâll cover honest self-assessment, building a stronger application, writing an effective letter of intent, preparing for interviews, navigating the Match process, and much moreâall in a practical, conversational style with plenty of real-world examples (including the infamous AnecDose stories).
My goal is simple: to help you understand what residency programs are really looking for, reduce the stress of the application process, and give you the tools to match with the residency program thatâs right for you.

Highly recommend for anyone interested in residency!
Reviewed in the United States on February 12, 2024A great resource for anyone interested in applying to pharmacy residency. It helps break down the application and interview process and even provides realistic examples and insider tips from a former RPD. It is a great resource for sample interview questions as well. I definitely recommend!
