UMMSS International Internship Information Night 2016 Unmatched process & Applying Interstate Khrisna Tumali MD4 Western Health Intern 2017
Unmatched Process Timeline in 2016 Aug 11 – P2 offers released 48 p2 were matched 42 p2 were unmatched So what happened if you were unmatched?
Unmatched Process You go into Round 3 process: Unmatched p2 and p3 applicants. From 11 August until Dec/Jan Round 3 purely deals with hospital networks and applicants, no PMCV and computer match involved. At this stage, the hospitals do not have to think about priority rankings.
Unmatched Process A spot open up Someone declined their position to take the job interstate The medical workforce unit (MWU) would let PMCV know about the position PMCV would give MWU list of the unmatched PMCV don’t email candidates when a spot open up Then, the MWU would decide who they are going to employ based on their list Could be p2 or p3 at this stage Once MWU decide, they would let PMCV know and inform the applicant! Via phone call – keep your phone ON at all times! I call Edwina (from PMCV Manager) – round 3 process if there is a spot open up (i.e. someone declined their position to take job interstate). The health service would let PMCV know about the position then PMCV would gave the hospital the unmatched lists. Have to make yourself known to the MWU that you are unmatched and keen to get a job in Vic
Tips if you were unmatched Things to do: Call Edwina (PMCV) - advice for Round 3 Talk to your clinical schools i.e. Dean Express willingness to work in Aus Talk to your hospital MWU Drop by in person then follow-up email Contact other hospital MWU Phone or email Let your local colleagues who applied to interstate know Consider other options Call PMCV – explained how the recruitment process will work
