Post-doc fellowships - can a clinical psychologist do ANYTHING without taking them, unless it is simple full time private practice?
I am not talking about becoming an academic. I am talking about doing clinical work at a hospital while also working part-time as a researcher - there are quite a few of these positions out there (if you look in the APA job postings), that offer clinical work with possible research/teaching involvement, or clinical director positions. But do you need to have a 2 year post doc to qualify? It seems that it would be horribly annoying to take another 2 years of gradschool AFTER getting the phD (which is what post-docs are).
