Your comments are important to us.

P.S. As the grouping is, there is coincidentally one wiki expert in each group. So use them wisely and treat them nicely.

Dear Sir/Mdm

I am a 3rd year pharmacy major in the National University of Singapore. Your ad for a pharmacist presented me an exciting opportunity, and I would like to apply for the mentioned position.
Through the course, I have managed to pick up skills that would be valuable not only in a pharmacist career, but in life as well. The curricula empowered me with the clinical knowledge that grants us deeper appreciation and understanding to available medication and supplements; a pharmacist career allows me to render service, and in the process, empower the patients, just like the curricula empowered me.
The preceptorship programme and the part-time work at a retail pharmacy also provided training ground for counseling and patient care skills. In a particular incident, a patient was complaining of muscle cramping. He was adamant on that he was suffering from a bone disorder and was insisting on calcium supplements. After a difficult counseling session, the misconceptions were dispelled, and he was finally convinced. Ultimately, he opted for a more suitable supplement. I believe these developed skills will allow for effective patient care in the healthcare system.
In tuition charges, specific lesson plans would be drawn out. They are tailored to the students’ need and style, in order to bring out the potential in them. I believe this can be applied in the corporate environment, where the staff can be groomed to unleash their greatest potential.
I would welcome the chance to discuss the opening. I can be contacted at 96501356. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely



Lee Wee Boon
