Hey everyone,
There seems to be little talk about NZ, that little country just off to the side from Australia. I'm an international student (Canadian) doing my third year Australian MBBS at UTAS.
I'll graduate 2012, which means I'm pretty much screwed with the whole internship problem that I'm sure everyone knows about. There's actually been quite the media coverage lately with some of this year's graduates going jobless and without the ability to further their medical career.
Anyway - I was wondering if anyone knows if the same problem is going on with New Zealand. I've been trying to look for info about whether they're suffering an internship shortage or not, but I haven't found anything.
Best answers will probably come from NZ med students or interns/reg's themselves, but I'm not sure how many of them use this forum
Thanks
Ray
