Locum and volunteer work

Doing some locum or volunteer work broadens your clinical experience, and builds on your ability to work independently and with greater responsibility. Along the way you may encounter specialties that interest you, and meet new contacts. Some specialty programs particularly value developing world work (e.g infectious diseases). Selection panels recognise that both locum and volunteer work involve leaving your comfort zone and adapting quickly to new and challenging environments. Medicine Uncharted is a community of Australian doctors and other healthcare professionals sharing their experiences and enthusiasm for working in the developing world.
