There are a number of documents which will need to be provided, as well as a verification process for your academic qualifications. When you start, your head will most likely be swimming with forms and regulations, so it is a good idea to get in contact with a medical recruitment agency to discuss your options. A good recruitment agent can manage the entire application process on your behalf, so you can concentrate on the where and when of starting your new job.

About working conditions in Australia
All Australian citizens and most permanent residents are covered by the Medicare system, a taxpayer funded public healthcare program.
* General practitioners bill per consultation on a “fee for service” basis, and many bill according to the fee set by the government (this is called “Bulk Billing”). However, GPs are permitted to charge above the mandated rate – with their patients responsible for the ‘gap’ payment.
* GP/Family Physician salaries in Australia range between 50-75% of their billings, and it is usually paid to you as an independent contractor. There are some arrangements where you are a retained employee of the clinic on a fixed salary.
* The actual annual income ranges from location to location, but a good guide would be between AUD $150,000 and $300,000 per annum. Some established GPs in regional areas make up to $600-$800k p.a.
* As an contractor, you will be responsible for your own annual leave, which is generally four weeks per year, taxation, and superannuation (pension fund). The practice you work with will often assist you with these considerations, as well as managing the administrative aspects of the medical clinic.
* The working hours for a general practitioner are between eight and twelve hours per day, three to five days per week. You may be on call after hours, or on weekends in turn with other doctors in the practice.
* As a general practitioner, you may also have the opportunity to provide services to local hospitals in specialist areas such as anaesthetics, obstetrics and gynaecology. This will depend on your skills, experience, and qualifications.
