hi
its true that there is a acute shortage of docs in MIDDLE GRADES AND ?? certain depts.
as i came across a new doc from pakistan for staff grade in paeds., its interesting,read the following
tier 2 visa
3 yrs work permit
applied thro' NHS jobs website
nearly 20+ telephone interviews FROM ALL CORNERS OF UK, all ready with job offers
no previous uk experience, now work as SHO for 6 months
did plab and left the country 2-3 yrs ago as NO JOB
INTERESTING I ASKED THIS DOC ABOUT THE NON TRAINING STAMP IN THE VISA, ACCORDING TO DOC - ? NO SUCH STAMP

this shows how desperate now the nhs, these ppl are clever, believe me they know what they r doing
it seems all EEA docs are only locuming to make quick money, NHS is drained out during this recession, we had a email from chair of RCGP asking for suggestions for any means to save money for nhs during this time, I suggest them to speak to Home office
the true picture for middle grades
i suggest to check out, but not for training jobs

My spouse had a letter stating about the ratio of competition for training jobs
eg. medicine - for 1 job 2 applicants
ortho - for 1 job 140 odd applicants and so on..

Hi,
Yes, indeed, you would require to prove that you have adequate training in OBGY. Hence, the log book is a must which you would have been maintaining while doing your PG course. PMETB verifies it from your college and university regarding the performa.

hi everyone . I am new to this forum.

I appeared for plab2 in may 2005. came back to india after being jobless for 6 months.

I want registration with gmc uk and i contacted gmc where I was asked to resit the IELTS exam and that they will reassess my case and decide whether i should resit the PLAB or whether they can grant me registration.

Has anyone seen or been in a similar situation??????

I have seen a few posts with similar queries but they are unanswered.

kindly help

ok as you said locum and sho jobs are easy to get in UK if one has a proper visa . could you please tell me if one is having HSMP visa for the last 3 to 4 yrs . can the HSMP visa be extended eaisly in uk ?
how about the visa part getting extension of the visa is a problem for docs who r doing sho /locum ?
I too know getting training post for overseas docs is highly difficult.

please can any one give the answers to the above questions.

Thank you.

greetings

I too passed PLAB in 2005 and came back to india.
My validity of 3 years has expired. I have been asked by the GMC people to resit the IELTS exam. They said they will review my case and inform me whether I need to resit the PLAB or any additional documentation will suffice for registration

Anyone has heard of such a case or gone through it please advise

thanking you
