Hi,
I am a third year Sydney Uni med student from Canada, and I am thinking of staying here after I graduate.
I had a look at the immigration department website and it says you need 2-year working experience in the related field in order to apply PR (http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/skilled-workers/ens/eligibility-employee.htm). Does that mean I cant apply for immigration until I finish PGY-2?
I am interested in surgery, but it seems like you cant get a training position unless you have a PR (http://www.surgeons.org/AM/Template...&Template=/CM/HTMLDisplay.cfm&ContentID=21951) ...so does that mean I'll have to spend my PGY-3 doing unaccreditted training while waiting for my PR approval? Is there any way to get around this issue (eg. doing internship in area of need)?
