Hi everyone I was hoping to write on here and get some much needed advice since I feel like I don't really have anyone to turn to (this might be a bit long but I'm just so lost).
I'm currently a P3 student and I'm really interested in Pharmacy Informatics but I'm not sure what I can do to start getting experience in this area. For the first time in pharmacy school I feel like I found something that I'm really passionate to learn about. But unfortunatly, I don't know how I can get experience in this field and make my CV stand out. When looking at my CV, I'm not sure how original it is...I mean I have plenty of work experience, research, have held leadership positions, and I'm part of rho chi (but I don't really feel like employers look at rho chi too much). I've also tried looking for internships intensely but everything is in retail, I have signed up for every career board and if anything remotely comes up that may help me, I apply but I never hear back.
I really want to do informatics...but I don't know how to get started. There are so many residency programs out there and I don't know which ones to choose from. Is it usually a 1 year residency for informatics or do you have to do a second year specialized in that field. I would really appreciate if anyone in this field could reach out to me and hopefully provide guidance/be someone I can ask for for advice. I'm attending pharmacy school in the Virginia area currently.
