Your activities for the last five years

What do I need to provide?

You must provide us with details of your most recent five years postgraduate medical experience, non-medical and other activities and every country you have been registered or licensed to work in during this time.

Please note we will complete global background checks on you and failure to provide this information or any omissions may result in your application being refused.

Examples of other activities are:

  • clinical attachments
  • unemployment
  • maternity leave
  • study leave
  • vacation
  • career breaks.

Do I need to send employer references?

You only need to supply employment references if, in the last five years, you've done:

  • non-medical work
  • medical work when you've not had registration or a license to practise with a medical regulatory authority
  • an observership or clinical attachment exceeding two months in duration.

You must provide a reference for each period of this type of work. Ask your employer to complete our reference form and email it to us directly from their official workplace email address. If this is not possible, they should be attached to your online application.

Each reference form must confirm the exact dates of your employment, indicate that you were of good standing during your employment, outline the nature of your work and show your registration requirements.

Reference forms for any current posts are only valid for three months from the date they're signed.
