Adam has worked in the medical careers arena for approximately two years now. One of his main roles was working as a careers coach for GPs wanting to move from being full-time clinicians to GPs with a part-time clinical practice as part of a ‘portfolio’ of roles. During this role he deepened his knowledge of LinkedIn from being that of merely a user to someone advising others on profile development.

He has reviewed numerous CVs and been on multiple interview panels, including positions as far-ranging as prospective medical student to healthcare organisation CEO. His background is that of a qualified GP and Barrister-at-Law from the UK and he is now living in Australia for the foreseeable future.
