I’m an overseas trained doctor. How do I get a job in Australia?

Foreign applicants have to get their skills assessed by Australian Medical Council.

Australian Medical Council Computer Adaptive Test (CAT) MCQ (Multiple Choice Questions) Examination assesses your knowledge.

The AMC Computer Adaptive Test (CAT) MCQ Examination is a computer-administered fully integrated multi-choice question examination delivered in one 3.5 hour session in examination centres worldwide.

The examination consists of 150 A-type MCQs (one correct response from five options)—120 scored items and 30 (non-scored) pilot items. You are expected to complete all 150 items and must complete the 120 scored items. Failure to complete all 120 scored items in the examination may lead to insufficient information for a reliable determination of your ability and therefore a result on the AMC adaptive scale. The examination result is recorded as ‘Fail—Insufficient data to obtain result’.

What is PESCI (Pre-employment structured clinical interview?

The PESCI is an assessment of your clinical experience, knowledge, skills and attributes by an assessment body authorised by the Medical Board of Australia (MBA). The assessment process consists of a structured interview, referee checks and a fee.

The MBA and Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency have agreed to implement PESCIs as a mandatory prerequisite for international medical graduates seeking registration in Australia to practice in any of the following roles:

  • general practice
  • all non-specialist positions in private hospital facilities
  • senior medical officers
  • medical officers (with or without right of private practice)
  • medical superintendents (with or without right of private practice)

Your PESCI needs to be arranged by your prospective employer in Australia.

When can I apply for the examination?

Australia Immigration needs skills assessment report before filing of EOI through SkillSelect. Applicants can appear for the same from anywhere in the world.
