I don't know what STS means. But usually O'ship is not dependent on your qualifications. Contacts and persistent emailing are the ones that work best. Its good if you have a good CV, mainly scores, publications, USCE or previous experience in the field (for some), you are more likely to be invited.

What do i mean by that? icon_rolleyes.gif

I mean previous exposure to US system as a medical assistant or physician assistant (many GC holders do that) or with a private practitioner increases your chances of being invited to competitive places with lots of applicants. Many a times surgical branches prefer people for observership who have some sort of exposure to US system, even if in medicinal branches. So, yes USCE helps in getting more USCE.

Such job vacancies are advertised on craigslist a lot. I don't know about any other places. I've met people during IVs that claimed 1-2 years USCE icon_eek.gif which surprised me. Later on i realized most of them were working as PAs. Only someone with a citizenship or GC has this option because nobody will sponsor visa for this job. It pays you as well as gets you at least 'some' USCE.

Thanks for info...What info ?? ICMR STS has little value. Now-a-days Medics are working on International Publications.

You are Interested In Paediatrics ...??!!!
Paediatrics people have low salaries and Litigations seem to be more against Paedia people.

Externship or Observership is gettable on
(a) First come First Serve Basis
(b) Money
(c) Contacts

It is usually not based on credentials.

That is an advice from a dipsite to another dipsite. Rethink on Paediatrics . I get pissed off after listening to cry of infants in Wards.
