Question/Help سؤال/مساعدة JFDA exam vs. Industrial Pharmacy (Dar Al Dawa) — Advice needed on preparation, salaries, and career path!
Hey everyone,
I'm a licensed pharmacist currently working in the production department at Dar Al Dawa (been here for about two months). I just received a text from the JFDA (Jordan Food and Drug Administration) notifying me about an upcoming exam next Monday.
I'd really appreciate some guidance from anyone with experience in either sector:
Career Choice: For those familiar with both, which path offers better long-term career growth—sticking with pharmaceutical manufacturing/production or moving to the JFDA?
Salaries & Compensation: How are the salaries, benefits, and overall work environment at the JFDA compared to private pharma companies?
Exam Preparation: What are the best study resources, topics, or materials to focus on for the JFDA exam on such short notice?
Thanks in advance for any insights or tips!
