AMA hosts event for International Medical Graduates
More than 50 International Medical Graduates (IMGs) attended a free event at AMA House on 9 September. Participants were from a wide range of countries, including Afghanistan, Vietnam, Romania, Ghana, Nigeria, Brazil, Syria, Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Iran, and Iraq.
The seminar provided IMGs with information and advice on how to build a CV, the workforce environment and challenges, preparing for and performing at interviews, CPD and doctorportal, navigating Medicare, and what to expect in the year of supervised practice.
