About PPS
Staged during ASHP’s Midyear Clinical Meeting, our Personnel Placement Service (PPS) is the industry's largest and most widely attended national pharmacy recruitment event. With some 1,500 pharmacy students, residents and practitioners in attendance, and close to 400 employers PPS is your shot to garner the attention you seek.
