Want To Combine Work and Travel? Why Not Try Locuming?
June 16, 2014
WE are constantly told by
pharmacists how much they
enjoyed their locum “away”
from their usual local hub
and are glad they took the
opportunity. If you’re wondering
what it’d be like to experience a
locum, here are some benefits
of travelling for a locum job:
• It is an opportunity to
experience a completely
different work environment.
• It gives you the chance to
gain a perspective into how
different pharmacies operate.
Who knows, if you are looking
to settle down with your own
pharmacy one day, you’ll
have an idea of what type of
pharmacy is going to work best
for you.
• Making a good impression
on the job allows you to gain
contacts and provides access
to far reaching professional
networks, which can be
advantageous towards your
future prospects.
• Most rural pharmacies are
frequently looking for new
employees; it may even give
you an opportunity to gain full
time employment! One that you
would never have thought of
even considering, had you never
taken the chance to travel away.
• Going away gives you the
ability to combine work and
travel. Never been to WA?
Then why not take the next
opportunity that presents itself
and maybe even take your
family along with you!
