Find your career path
Medicine offers a world of career possibilities, including combining your other interests.
Choosing a career in medicine is more than selecting a job - it's committing to a lifelong journey of learning, service, and impact. With a wide range of specialties and roles available, from clinical practice to research and public health, finding the right path requires thoughtful reflection and informed decision-making.
Career path guidance from your peers
Hear from Avant Early Career Doctor Advisory Council members on the drivers for their career choices. Learn from their reflections on making decisions about which direction to go.
5 Key factors to consider
There are several factors you might consider when deciding on your career pathway, such as your personal interests, work/life balance, and where you want to work.
After weighing up these factors, your decision might be easy, or you might end up even more confused. Hearing from other doctors who’ve gone on a similar journey can provide you with some guidance and insights and help make sure you’re making realistic decision based on your own personal situation.
Career and professional growth
Building a successful medical career takes ongoing learning, adaptability, and strategic planning.
Even if you have a particular career path in mind, that may change, so it is better to get a broader range of exposure in internship and residency rather than narrow your focus.
