I’ve always wanted to pursue a career that can drive innovative changes through meaningful impact on patient care, therapeutic drug development, and health care practice.

Completing residency interviews, final-year rotations, and submitting rank lists can be overwhelming. The anticipation of Match Day (results of Phase I were released on March 19, 2025) can make it difficult to focus on well-being, as thoughts about interview performance and future plans take over. It’s essential to manage stress by celebrating small victories, such as completing the residency application process, securing interviews, and approaching graduation.

Networking can be intimidating, but it’s also one of the most rewarding ways to build your career as a student pharmacist.

As you prepare for graduation and the next steps in your career, it is important to embrace the opportunities for continued engagement, reflection, and self-improvement.
