Difficult Bosses specifically talks about a dirty little secret in Medicine. Doctors are often subpar managers. We struggle to support the needs of workers around us and deal with bad things like bullies in Medicine. This channel hopes to correct that by sharing stories about both good and bad bosses in Medicine as well as advice for both trainees and the bosses.

Thank you Dr Anthony for your videos, they help a lot. What of an IMG who graduated in the West Indies but is married to an Australian and now residing here in Australia. What advice would you give that medical graduate in terms of internship in Australia since he is now domiciled in Australia?
Hi. First question is was it a requirement in your country to do an internship?
Hello Doctor Anthony , I have been following your channel since long time , actually I had a question I hope you would help me out , so basically I did my MD (undergraduate degree) in carribean islands where my 3rd and 4th year of MD involved hospital rotations in different departments like general med, general surgery, OBGYN, Pediatrics, Psychiatry etc but i didnt received any internship completion certificate as such. So if I give AMC 1 and 2 and pass these exams , what am i supposed to go for , do i need to apply for 1 year medical internship in australia or am i suppose to apply for RMO job ? the thing is that as my medical curriculum is similar to the US MD system and in the US MD it is well known that they dont have internship as such plus i was not able to find any video in youtube specifically regarding this issue so i hope you would help me out on this.
Hello
Your challenge will be convincing the Medical Board that your internship was done as part of your degree. Generally most IMGs can do this by producing evidence of being fully licensed or registered in another country. But you may not have this. On top of this employers are likely to be reluctant to employ anyone who has not worked as a doctor before when they can choose from other doctors with work experience.
In summary, I would strongly advise you to get some work experience prior to applying to work here under the Standard Pathway.
@@CareerDoctor Thank you for the response doctor , one thing I forgot to mention in my previous comment is that whatever hospital rotations I did in my 3rd and 4th year , it is well documented in my transcripts and it is specifically mentioned in my transcript that in what all department I did my rotations and how many months I did each department how much score/marks I got in each department etc including credit hours which they gave me for each department.
So will that be enough for me for to be eligible to apply for RMO job or is it like a mandatory thing that I have to get work experience before even considering australia standard pathway ?
Thank you! Helps a lot! May I ask you one question about the competent pathway? I mean, I have watched some videos about using the GMC (UK) and then change the UK license into Australia one. They said it will be faster and cheaper for IMGs to take the competent pathway . Do you think it is feasible？ Hope to your kind reply😆
This route is feasible. Personally I don’t recommend it. But it’s an option.
@@CareerDoctor Thank you Dr Anthony so much for your generous reply! And I really hope you can explain the reasons in future videos!😆
Ur welcome
hi there mate. I’m going to graduate a UK GMC accredited medical school july 2025 (university of bristol). does this qualify me for the competent pathway? I was looking at applying for internship when I stumbled across this video. I mean this is a curious sense but I just talked to the internship office for WA and they said most intern positions dont get filled?! I would like to work in Brisbane Melbourne of Perth. I understand ud likely recommend me stay in UK for F1 PGY1 in the UK but please let me know your thoughts.
I don't know what the person you talked to in WA was taking at the time BUT THE MAJORITY OF INTERN POSTS in Australia do get filled. You need to do your F1 first. It's that simple. You might have some problems getting a job as a PGY2 but at PGY3 it won't be an issue.
Hello sir,
I have a question regarding being a resident medical officer in Australia as a foreigner medical graduate.
I got my doctor of medicine degree from Thai Medical School. After graduation, I worked for 14 months: 3 months in the emergency department and 11 months in pediatric ICU in 2 different hospitals in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.
>> I wonder if it is considered as doing an intern year in the Australian medical context or do I need to rotate in every major departments like OB GYN and surgery too?
Do I need to provide any documents proving that I did my internship year when applying for registration in Australian along with the MCQ and clinical exam?
Thank you so much and I hope to hear from your response.
I want to work as a resident medical officer in Australia after passing the MCQ and clinical exams and I wonder if they considered my aforementioned postgraduate working as having complete my intern year.
Thank you sir
Completing your internship year counts towards past clinical experience.
English taught MBBS program from China is 5 years + 1 year of compulsory internship. Most of the students only graduate after the completion of total of Six years. So, are we supposed to do other year of internship after passing the AMC exams?
If you have already done an internship you don't need to repeat it here.
What if I haven't done an internship, but only have 5 years of MBBS from China? Along with it if I clear the AMC 1 alone what are the chances of getting a job or internship in Australia?
Hello sir did u solve this problem?I heard that internship in China can’t be recognised by AHPRA is that true?
Hi Doc
I would like to let you know that Australians graduating from overseas medical schools are getting internships in Australia
Thanks. I never said its not possible. Its just very difficult. This video is a bit old and in the last couple of years there have probably been a few more than previous. But it's still not my recommended course of action.
Did my english taught 5 years of MBBS from China, not done internship. If I get the AMC 1 cleared, can I do internship in Australia? How to apply for it?
You are very unlikely to gain an internship. The video explains why.
Hello sir, is a proof of internship enough or should we be registered/ licensed in the country we practiced for the standard pathway
Generally these are considered one and the same in most places. The Medical Board wants to see proof of internship.
Hello sir.
I graduated oversease but did my clinical rotations in Australia before graduating. What is my chances of getting an internship place?
Assuming you did not do an off-shore course like Monash Malaysia you are still classified as an IMG and have very little chance. Your Australian rotations might boost things a bit from the employers perspective.
I need to know if an international student completes MBBS from Australia then can he / her do the internship from Australia or need to go back to home country to complete internship.
They can apply for internship in Australia
I am an img….I am preparing for amc-1 and after once I cleared amc-1 can i easily get internship and how much we get paid during internship?
Your question implies that you did not actually watch my video
Hello Sir,
I'm an Indian citizen who just graduated from the School of Medicine in the Philippines. Am I eligible to apply for the Standard Pathway if I complete my post graduate internship in the Philippines (,i.e, not in my home country) or elsewhere (eg:- in UAE or Germany)?
Thank you.
If you complete an internship elsewhere this will normally be acceptable.
@@CareerDoctor Thank you sir.
Your welcome
@@CareerDoctor hii are there any types of internships that are not acceptable? I heard in some countries its an observation internship ...not very sure ..
I haven't come across any that were not acceptable
Sir, as a medical graduate not holding a licence to practice/registration in the country of origin or the country of graduation, can I apply for limited registration in Australia after passing Amc mcq exam part 1 and completing one year postgraduate internship?
Thank you.
Hi You can't apply for registration without a position offer. In theory if you don't need a license in your country to work as a doctor then you should be able to apply. You may however find that employers are a bit hesitant. Also the Medical Board will require a Certificate of Good Standing which you won't be able to produce.
@@CareerDoctor Thank you for your response sir.
My situation is that I'm an Indian citizen but graduated from the Philippines. Both countries require a registration/licence to practice. But in the Philippines, only Filipino citizens are given the registration and in India, I haven't got the registration yet.
So, from what you mentioned above, does it mean that I cannot apply for limited or even provisional registration in Australia without a certificate of good standing, even if I get a job offer (luckily) and pass AMC 1&2? In simple words, is it a mandatory requirement or are there any alternatives for it?
Thanks in advance!
Hello @mercydavid7924 did you find an answer to your question. Am a indian doing medicine in the Philippines and planning to do my internship here and taking AMC part 1 and then proceeding to Australia.
I am a medical student in armed forces medical college Bangladesh.
Can I apply for a job after MBBS without internship in my country if I pass AMC PART 1 .
Do I need internship for getting a job? What would be the entry level position in Australia?
Hi Somali as I have discussed in this video the Australian internship systems is really for Australian graduates. Its best if you work at least a year in your own country and then apply for an RMO type position.
Can an ECFMG certified IMG from Nepal apply for internship in Australia by skipping AMC exam?
nope
@@CareerDoctor Thank you for your response. So does this mean there is no recognition of ECFMG certificate and IMG have to go through standard pathway?
ECFMG only allows you to sit the USMLE Part 3. And you also need to get 2 years experience in an ACGME program. I suggest you watch through my other videos on standard pathway and competent authority pathway.
The Council should give IMGs a chance to become interns.
Which Council? If you mean the AMC. It’s not up to the AMC.
Hello doctor, I'm Shree from India. Wow, you explained everything in only one video what I wanna know actually. Do you help to crack this AMCexamination? I mean 1- which new editions books and guidelines for IMGs.
2- Through any pathway (standard) if you will be passed AMC. then how many percent chance for getting job because Australian doctors are also well trained with their residency😅?
3. Can you tell me approx duration for this whole procedure ( after AMC to PG course completing).
Sorry those questions are a bit confusion. I will answer no. 1 for you. We have blog posts about the AMC on our website.
