Eligibility

Eligibility to get job and registration are two different things.  The main thing is to get job. If you are eligible for a job and secure one, it is most likely that you will be eligible for registration – at least limited registration. Then what are the eligibility criteria? It can be different for everyone, but still transparent. Minimum requirement is a below:

• You have to have eligible medical degree from WHO listed medical university and your degree have to be verifiable through ECFMG. You don’t have to have degree verified, but you have to apply before you can get registration. Further information can be obtained from WHO website and ECFMG website.
• You have done internship in your country.
• You have done your OET/IELTS if you need that (i.e if you are not from English speaking country). You can clear either of these exams. At present you have to get at least overall 7 bands with 7 bands in each in IELTS academic. Further information for IELTS can be obtained from IELTS website. You have to get at least B grade in each for OET. Further information for OET can  be obtained from OET website. 
• You have at least cleared your AMC MCQ. 
• You have to obtain good standing certificate from your country, where your primary degree has been registered.
• Other requirements for registration are minor and I believe almost all doctors would be able to fulfil those requirements like proof of identity, criminal check, registration history, 2 referees and professional indemnity insurance

Detail registration standards for medical practitioners can be obtained from APHRA website.
