Transitioning to Informatics Pharmacist
I am interested in transitioning to informatics but it’s seeming like an impossible task.
I have 8+ years of experience as an Epic end user. I am a super user with my current organization. I obtained Willow Inpatient and Beacon proficiency. I am involved in informatics committees within my organization.
However, it appears like my organization prefers seasoned informatics pharmacists with active certifications. This is through insight from internal discussions and small talk during meetings. They do not have an issue getting seasoned applicants since the positions are usually fully remote and allow candidates from out of state. I have not even been able to land an interview.
What else can I do to improve my chances or is it just a matter of waiting for years and continuing to apply to all available positions internally and externally
Would it be better to move to a smaller organization and then try to transition internally at that organization?
