In begins in October and ended in October. The whole year, it took a lot to adapt. 

During the first few rotations, I fall apart almost every time the rotation ended. When I was just about to make a friend or really adapt to that place, TIMES UP! Next station, so the same vicious cycle repeats until I get to rotate BACK to the previous department that I was in. I felt relieved that at one point, I get to know everyone. The thing is, when you enter that department the second time, you need to speed up and you must be capable of doing most of the things there. You can't see yourself as 'new' even though you are still the newbie there. 

When that 1 year was finished, I applied to new places. Yet, the chances to get into a new place were small. so, I waited. 

I GOT IT. (still don't know where I'll be going while writing this)

Post PRP (floating)

You still need to do PRP duties especially if you're the only PRP there. I guess I do feel a bit calm because there are no requirements that I need to follow. Aside from the duties. At my facility, we will be placed in a department during floating. Usually, that's the place you will end up working at. 

During that day, readjust that place as your second home. Be aware of your surrounding and always be nice to everyone. You'll never know how long you will work there and the pharmacy department (as a whole) is a small unit. Even if you got out, someday you will need to deal with people who had known in the past. 

Responsibilities; still refer to your boss but be bolder in making your own decisions. Don't be a know-it-all person, refer to reliable references and be humble. Refer to product leaflets if you can't find them online. Always stick to the protocols. Nowadays, ME and RCS are the things you need to be careful of. 

Finish PRP does not mean finishing learning. 

In my facility, my PRP requirements are not similar to other places.  I don't have TDM, TPN and CDR. I also don't involve methadone dispensing and MTAC. We have assigned officers. As a contract officer, we are not obligated to certain duties if we are not assigned. It's not like we have a choice to join or refuse. If we are assigned a duty, it will appear in our KPI (job scope) and a letter will be given stated the duty. Besides that, the job scope for permanent and contract officers is different. This one, it depends on the facility. 

I know i said 'and' a lot. My English did not improve during my 1 year working. 

As a pharmacist, you need to be versatile. After some years working the same thing, they will do rotations. You need to know how to do 'most' things. Don't panic, each time before something new, you must do 'tagging'. You can make mistakes, sure, go ahead. But, don't make the same shit twice. 

I don't have most experience post PRP because after floating -> the Khidmat Wajib . One year of compulsory service. I see it as a thanking service to the government as they helped us get out license. In reality, its that YEAR where you decide your next step. 

Will i get the permanent position? (are you willing to wait, THEN decide or roll the dice and find other things?)

Will you renew your contract after that 1 one?

Or, will you resign?

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Or, will you apply to another facility?

Do you want to find the opportunity to further study? 

Well, I have a senior who applied to a position at HUKM. She applied during that YEAR. She got through 2 interviews (if not mistaken), by the end of the year, she did not get the permanent position BUT she got the HUKM position. 

Let me tell you something, I see my seniors (also my colleagues) who applied for the permanent position. 10/10 did not get the position and only 1 in waiting list. 

When the government opens the positions, maybe 300+ positions but the applicants could be up to 3000+. Besides, they already add criteria such as only officers who finished their Khidmat Wajib in 2018-2020. Newbies are not allowed to apply. If you work as contract pharmacists for 5 years, your title would be UF44, pay check of UF44 but usually the positions open as UF41. I'm not sure about the paycheck, if it decrease as UF41 or stays, i'm not sure but what I am sure, your service resets. Means, as goverment officer, in order to get pencen 60%, you need to work for at least 30 years. Even you work as contract for 5 years, your service begins when you are a permanent officer. 

You see, you need to decide. How long are you willing to wait. 

Setting goals post PRP are damn important. 

Be around people and get their bits of advice. Always be out there. Seek other opportunities if you want other pathway. Be open minded with new things. I went to an industrial program, they said, in that field, they are accepting pharmacists for positions that used to be filled by doctors. Industrial are the most versatile industry that I saw since I joined their programs. Bare in mind, most of industrial pharmacists make their own positions. They make a place for them. We (pharmacists) are very important to society and we need to make them realize it. 

Before I end my (whatever this is), my respectable boss said to me; 

It is important to keep on learning.

I need to learn more about management.

I need to have no expectations and be open minded as I'm about to work at a new place. 

That's all my 2cent. Feel free to hit me up if you need better explainations or any questions.
