Listen "How to Get Health Tech Jobs for Doctors?"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, I tackle the frequently asked question about how to get a job in Health Tech as a doctor.
I explain the 3 main approaches that can be used when looking for a new role and share my unique knowledge on how each can be used in the most effective way
With health tech being a relatively new sector, there are fantastic opportunities you can access as a doctor.
This is an informative listen that provides useful approaches to move you to the role you want to have.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
There are 3 main ways of getting a job in health tech – the traditional Front door approach, the Side door – where you enter either traditionally or through project work then move into other roles, and the Back door – through a warm network referral
The front door approach is the traditional process of applying for a role when it’s advertised
Many jobs are never advertised so this can limit the roles and opportunities
The side door approach lets you test out the company you are interested in by doing some project work
If a company already knows and trusts an individual when something becomes available that individual will be their choice
With the back door approach, you need to identify anyone you know who can give you a referral, look at your network of colleagues, friends, and family for connections to the area you want to work in
Events are a great way of meeting new people and building new relationships
Approximately 20-30% of new hires come from referrals alone
BEST MOMENTS
‘You need someone who can champion you into getting a project or job’
'LinkedIn is a huge network resource for finding other doctors'
