Working in sydney, OZ

Hi Heatherc,

Now that makes a lot more sense, and it would be great for moving around and getting to see a lot more of the country and getting lots of different experience.

Just one other point a colleague mentioned to me, probably more related to private practice position (long term - not locum) Make sure you negotiate your pay based on experience before you accept a position, apparrently it's expected out here so have plenty of evidence of experience, courses, post-grad qualifications etc.... These are businesses after all.

On looking for work, friends of mine just cold called lotsa department managers in the big hospitals in Sydney with only some success but it's definitely worth a try. Try picking an area you wanna live and looking for work there private/hospital etc... NOT BONDI as practices in this area don't want working/holiday visa physios, and also because there's so much more to sydney than that area.

Good luck with everything, you'll have a ball and get some excellent experience out here. Any other info just message me.
