COFFEE TALK:
BREWING
PATHS
A JOURNEY THROUGH PHARMACY CAREERS
📚 About the Event
If you're feeling unsure about your career path… you're not alone.
Career Coffee Talk is a yearly conversation series created to support fresh graduates and early-career professionals as they transition from study life into the working world.
Each year, we focus on a specific challenge that many face in their first few years on the job — the kind that isn’t covered in textbooks or lectures.
Because let’s be real: stepping into your career can feel like stepping into the unknown.

🌀 Themes We Explore in the Series
“I graduated. Now what?”
“I feel stuck.”
"Is it okay to change direction?"
Each session is designed to meet you where you are, spark new thinking, and connect you with mentors and peers who get it.
🔄 The Format:
Unlike a usual career talk, at this Career Coffee Talk, we would like to introduce a thoughtfully crafted 3-stage format that mirrors how people build their knowledge: starting with curiosity, moving into conversation, and ending with clarity.

1️⃣ Open Forum Session
We kick off with a panel of pharmacists from different paths: community, clinical, entrepreneurial, and R&D. You’ll hear their stories, lessons learned, and the realities behind the job titles.
2️⃣ Coffee Talk Circles
Next, we move into intimate group sessions. You’ll get the chance to sit down with speakers and mentors in a casual setting to ask real questions, share your thoughts, and connect on a deeper level.
3️⃣ 1-to-1 Career Huddles
For those who feel a strong pull toward a specific path or mentor, we offer limited one-on-one sessions for more focused guidance.
☕ Every step of this funnel is designed to help you go from uncertainty to clarity — at your own pace, in your own way.
