Careers

Who can I talk to and where to next?

There are usually more applications than there are positions and candidates are strongly advised to ensure that a legible, up-to-date CV accompanies the application along with any relevant supporting documents. The candidate must state clearly his/her preferred sub-discipline in Pathology in rank order if more than one sub-discipline is being applied for, or "general Pathology" if indeed the intent is to train in all sub-disciplines. Candidates may be required to present for an interview.

When considering applying for a Pathology training position, please be aware that candidates will be ranked as follows (with preference given to NZ graduates):

  • Current Pathology trainees in the Auckland region, showing satisfactory progress (Registrars who elect to change their sub-specialty after appointment will not necessarily be given preference over new applicants)
  • Joint trainees (4 schemes) - FRACP/FRCPA showing satisfactory progress
  • Candidates for pathology who wish to transfer to the Auckland region
  • RACP trainees with core requirements for laboratory training
  • Other trainees, for example, those in other clinical training schemes who desire pathology experience, e.g., Immunology, Dermatology.
