Medical Recruitment Companies
Links to some of the many companies that work with International Medical Graduates.
Only recommended if you are a specialist IMG with a good chance of comparability OR
a specialty trainee from a Competent Authority country (UK, Ireland, Canada, USA).
Will a Medical Recruitment Company Help You?
I would appreciate it very much if you contact me first prior to contacting any medical recruitment company.
I will firstly be able to guide you as to whether a recruitment company may help you as well as direct you to an effective agent should this be the case.
There is no cost to you for contacting me first. But I may sometimes receive a commission which goes a long way to helping me continue to provide free information to a large audience of doctors.

Area of Need Lists
Links to where Specialists (including GPs) can find Area of Need Positions advertised.
Note: in many cases the State Area of Need listings are not publicly available and you may have to look at the e-recruitment portals or go via a recruitment agent.
In reality, it is rare to find a viable Area of Need Post these days as employers prefer you apply to the college.
Specialist Demand in Australia
Overall in Australia, there are many specialties that are in oversupply. However, for many of these specialties, there remains undersupply in regional and rural areas.
The Map My Health Careers Page (produced by NSW Health) gives you a picture of the context in Australia’s most populous State.
My Health Career is a commercial site that provides a range of information on the full range of health professions across Australia.
DoctorConnect provides information to international medical graduates and their employers. It aims to help international medical graduates understand the steps required to work as a doctor in Australia, where they can work and restrictions on billing patients under Medicare.
