Check with the relevant Government department. The website of the office of the deputy prime minister may help as he is also the health minister.

Why all the posts?

@RITESH KUMAR65 Hello welcome !

Indeed, there is no need to need to make all these posts (I have deleted them and edited one post of yours).

I recommend that you re read the whole thread for better understanding of why it is hard to get a pharmacist job.

Read the previous posts

For a person to be able to practice as a pharmacist in Malta, first he/she needs to have his/her qualification recognised by the Pharmacy Council and then have his/her name entered in the Register of Pharmacists held by the Pharmacy Council. Subsequently the Pharmacy Council recommends the applicant for the issue of a licence to practice as a pharmacist in Malta.​  follow this link for the information needed https://mfhea.mt/publications-and-appli … istration/

Thanks

Thank you GozoMo. You have raised a very valid point.

A pharmacist should ideally be able to speak Maltese and have a very good command of English. It is essential that a pharmacist can communicate and advise customers and patients clearly.

Many elderly Maltese struggle to understand English, especially if the person serving them is speaking English that is not is not their own first language. I have noticed a particular chain of pharmacies have employees who are not Maltese and not native English speakers. I have at times needed to act as a translator for other customers in the queue being served! A customer should be able to receive advise on the dosage of their medicines and confidentially ask any questions directly to the professional, not have to turn to a complete stranger and rely on another member of the public to act as a go-between.

To the people who are posting here, please be aware that first preference for jobs is given to Maltese and EU Citizens, Third Country Nationals can only be employed if neither a Maltese or EU applicant cannot be found to fill the position.

@mails4flourish hi Esther. were you able to get the malta pharmacy licence. was the license equivalent to theirs?

@mails4flourish

Hi Esther, was your nigeriaN license equivalent to malta's?
