🚨 Job Scams Are Everywhere – Even on Handshake 🚨 Imagine applying to a job posted by Memphis University School, only to realize the "HR manager" is a Chief Medical Officer at BDI, Inc. 🤔 That's exactly what I came across recently. When I questioned why the supposed school staff had LinkedIn ties to a completely unrelated medical field, suddenly the replies stopped. That’s right—another scam, hiding behind a seemingly legitimate job posting platform associated with universities. 🔍 Reminder: Even when applying to 50-60 jobs daily, it feels like half of them could be scams. Job platforms need to step up their vetting process to protect applicants. Pro Tip: Always go straight to the company’s career page to apply, not third-party sites. Protect your time, your data, and possibly even your money from falling into the wrong hands. The fact that this has become the norm for job searching? Unacceptable. #JobSearch #JobScam #JobHuntingTips #CareerAdvice #StaySafe

Some tips to secure a Job in the NHS for IMG Doctors: 💡 🚨 🚨 🚨 1. Optimize Your NHS Jobs Profile: Craft a compelling profile on the NHS Jobs site. 2. Locate Job Advertisements: Use varied search terms like "trust grade doctor", "FY2", or "junior clinical fellow" to uncover more opportunities. Make use of the favorites feature to track appealing jobs. 3.

Track Closing Dates: Pay attention to the application deadlines, mark them on your calendar, and consider following up if you haven’t heard back within a month after the closing date. 5. Exercise Patience: It often takes 2-3 months to secure a position. Keep applying and maintain patience. Following these steps can simplify the job search process and reduce stress as you navigate your path to employment within the NHS.

I've seen a number of posts (and a gov petition...) around the theme of "entry level roles" requiring experience. I just took a little look at what entry level roles are listed in my area, and found that they included an engineering role that needed at least two years' experience, and a veterinary surgeon role which I'm pretty you couldn't do just walking off the street... The issue here isn't (often) that employers are being unreasonable in wanting experience for entry level roles. The issue is that these are being incorrectly categorised as entry level. None of the adverts I saw said in the actual advert that they were entry level. This is a great reminder to recruiters out there to make sure you're paying attention to each of the sections when adding a job to LinkedIn. It may seem like something minor, but actually these roles appearing in the entry level search could not only create a negative impression of you as an employer, but also mean that you're not accessing the right audience.

What do you think about a recruiter looking for a job instead of recruiting? It seems the recruiter is waiting to be recruited before he or she starts recruiting. A medical doctor waiting to be seen by another doctor. Just so you know that a Doctor cannot prescribe medication for him or herself. Likewise a lecturer waiting to receive a lecture from another lecturer cannot grade himself or herself. We Truly need one another to avoid conflict of interest.

Not all connections are bad Be intentional about creating meaningful professional relationships/connections in professional spheres This covers two of the rules relating to the code of conduct of pharmacists and that is Continuing professional development (CPD) and Co-operation with health care professionals. I gave a speech as the University of the Western Cape Association of Pharmacy Students Chairperson in our final year ball, one thing that I have highlighted is that we came to varsity as strangers but weren't exiting the same way, relationships have been formed and they will be beneficial going forward in our career paths. cultivating positive connections in professional spheres is essential for career growth, collaboration, professional development, job satisfaction, networking, conflict resolution, and fostering a positive organizational culture. By investing in building and maintaining meaningful relationships with colleagues, supervisors, and industry peers, you can enhance your success and fulfillment in the workplace. One of the benefits of networking, building positive connections expands your professional network, which can be beneficial for career advancement and job opportunities. Networking allows you to exchange ideas, learn from others' experiences, and stay informed about industry trends. A robust professional network can provide referrals, introductions, and access to job openings. #Pharmacy #health #professional #Networking #medical

✏ Personal Statement Series(1): Reflections ✏ Are you struggling to write your personal statement for medical school? Do you feel completely overwhelmed, with no unique ideas? 💡 Here’s Part 1 on how to make your bland statement stand out 🌟: Show, don’t tell: This may seem very obvious, but many applicants make the mistake of just listing the experiences they have had. This doesn’t give ANY indication of what you know about the role of a doctor and is likely to get you rejected. Here’s one example: Applicant A:  “I worked for 5 months at a care home. I worked with the elderly multiple times a week, which opened my eyes to the challenges they face. Also, I read a book…” Applicant B: “I had the privilege of working with the elderly at a care home. I was surprised by how multiple patients felt lonely and anxious without their families to take care of them. I took the time to listen carefully to their concerns and also try to cheer them up which made a real difference by the end. This demonstrated to me how important communication is when…” Which applicant would you pick?  Even though Applicant A may mention more experiences, Applicant B is MORE likely to get an offer. Always keep this in mind: QUALITY > QUANTITY To sum up, MAKE SURE to demonstrate that you have seriously reflected on the skills required by a doctor and that you have developed these to some degree throughout your experiences. If this helped you, make sure to stay tuned for Part 2: Common Mistakes. #medicine #inspiration #career #essay
