Re: Applying for a pharmacy technician job as a CPhT

[Guest guest]

I would think that you would not need to give them a copy of the certificate

nor the cert number until they ask for it. I wouldn't put the number on my

resume. If/when they call you in for an interview, you can bring a copy of

the large one to them at that time.

ire,

 

I agree with Elaine S.

 

I teach my students to place a heading called:

Qualification and Certification

or  two headings:

Education

Qualifications

 

Included are Dates and renewal dates of Licenses, Registrations  and

Ceritificates

 

It may look like this:

 

 

Qualifications

 

California State Board of Pharmacy

Pharmacy Technician Registration Valid November 15, 2010 Renewal Date November

15, 2012 

 

Certified Pharmacy Technician Certificate PTCB

Valid April 30, 2010 Renewal Date: April 30, 2012 Score: 800/900 scaled points

 

or any other way you would like to site your certificates and qualifications on

your resume.

 

When being interviewed bring copies of your certificates so that they can have a

copy of them to see and for your file if you are hired.

 

ONLY mention your exact score IF it is 780 or greater.

Listing a score lower than this could/may hinder your chances of scoring an

interview. Higher scores may help you to score an interview. Not mentioning the

score does not harm you either way.

 

 

Hope this helps.

The one that is the composite score is the one that is reported. It is generally

the first score reported called the Total Passing Score.

The other three tell you your scaled points or score for a specific section or

type of questions.

 

Here is an example of one of my students scores: 

 

Total: Passing Score - 650 - Your Scaled Score - 790

Assist Pharmacist in Serving Patients - - 782

Maintain Med. Inventory Control System - - 789

Admin. Mgmt. of Pharmacy Practice - - 837
