The time has come to check out which pharmacy employers will be attending the Intern Fair on the evening of Wednesday, December 6. Some of the companies will simply have a booth where you can drop by and talk to one of their representatives about opportunities available anytime from 5pm-8pm, while other companies will be interviewing students who sign up. Interviews will be first come first serve for sign-ups. Below is the list of companies in attendance with their respective links to sign up for interviews. Dinner will be provided to those that sign-up.

ALL attendees must register here by November 28 at 11:59pm in addition to signing up for an interview below so we can collect your CV to give to the company before interviews.
