Default Re: Locum Salary

Hi, I am currently a pharmacy student in Australia. I am a bit interested in working in Britain after I obtain my license here. The pay in Australia is quite poor, averaging about 60 to 70k in Aussie dollars. It seems like the locum salary here is even lower, and inflation is also a huge problem here. There are about 16 pharmacy schools in Australia, with a population of only 21 million here. It also seems like there's a pessimism regarding the pharmacist career, and I heard that about three fourth of my pharmacy uni get out of the pharmacy field

How's the life and pharmacy career prospects in Britain? Would you recommend me moving there? I've never been to Europe but the UK seems like a cool place to live, but am I in any way misjudging?
