does anybody knows how to apply medical officer job in Singapore.
I become a citizen now & due to my husband's job in different countries we finally settle back here.
Now after 10 years of graduation from Pakistan & diploma in ultrasound from UAE that i did recently 2015 dec,will i be eligible to get job as medical officer??
I want to continue my proffesion & want to apply for mrcp part1 here.
Is there any MRCPGP exam here in singapore??
Plz give me good suggession,so i can continue my proffession.
If your Pakistani degree is not in the SMC list, forget about much - you maybe stuck with a T reg. With 2 year renewal and only in a public hospital.
You may remain a clinical specialist = House officer for a long long time. Plus a weekly night call + lower pay.
You need to manage your expectation there. Being citizen won't help much. If you manage to move up without supervision it would be a miracle but miracles do happen. It has happened to one graduate from India and not much for others.
Non physician roles may be easier, likr medical advisors and such. But do Look up the MOHH site.
That's my 2 cents..
Do look up the MRCP site, they have exams twice a year, in Singapore and Malaysia alternating.
Plus, if I recall correctly, you will need a MRCP member with a valid medical registration to endorse you.
Good luck.
PS, member Taxico may add more relevant info to the above.
PS, how long have you not practiced?
