Since then, many of this first batch of 1,219 contract HOs have completed their two-year tenure, resulting in a surge in “floating contract medical officers” (MOs) in the hospitals where they were placed. I am currently helping my daughter to apply for a medical job in another country, and I would like to give my opinion on contract medical jobs. Under the United Kingdom’s National Health Service, all medical posts are contract jobs. While housemanship is almost guaranteed by the parent medical school, post-housemanship doctors will have to apply for jobs. In this day and age, advertisements, application forms and cover letters could all be uploaded and processed on a common online portal.
