So let me dispel the misconception that getting a pharmacy degree ensures your job safety for the rest of your life
Many people tell me, "Oh you are lucky you are getting a pharmacy degree because there will always be demand for pharmacists."
YES and NO
Yes, health care professionals will always be needed.
No, the pharmacists market is currently saturated so getting a pharmacy job is just as difficult and competitive as any other job.
After attending a pharmacy career night tonight, I learned how saturated the market really is and that many companies are not hiring in certain areas or hiring at all. Also, there are more pharmacy schools popping up around the country making jobs more competitive.
Attending 6 years of school and getting a pharmacy degree does not guarantee ANYTHING especially in this economy or the current market and it especially does not guarantee "luck" as many people tell me.

There is really no "guaranteed" job market out there unfortunately. Like you said, there will always be demand for health care professionals, but we have also have to ask if the demand is growing or not. Since universities are continuously producing pharmacy graduates, the pharmacy job market must be growing as well to accomodate these new graduates.
