Why Consider a career in Australia?
Here are some good reasons why...
1
Work-Life Balance
Imagine having a work week of 40 hours or less. Imagine having 20% of your hours dedicated to administrative time. What would you be able to do if you didn’t have to stay late everyday charting??
2
5 Weeks Paid Vacation / Year
Imagine taking off two weeks at a time to go to Bali, or Fiji or Tahiti. Imagine being able to have a long weekend every month, just because you need a break.
3
Sick Leave
Good thing you don’t have to be ‘Superhuman’ here. You get accrued sick leave AND carer’s leave. No reason to use your annual leave if you or someone you love falls ill.
4
Generous CME Allowance
A good physician is a life long learner. Well here you get two weeks of CME per year and a VERY generous CME budget that you can use on anything from courses to electronic devices to professional dues.
5
Physician Union
What is that you ask? It is YOUR representation for all work matters as a physician in Australia. No matter where you work, you are guaranteed certain protections. You will never have to worry about disputes with the hospital becuase your union has your back.
6
An Amazing Place to Live
It not just koalas and kangaroos (but there are an awful lot of both). It vibrant cities with hot music and art scenes. Its beautiful and family friendly neighborhoods. Its cafe culture and beach life. Its surfing, skiing, diving and hiking. There is so much to do and this huge continent can be your playground.
