In this episode, I discuss the creation of the Medic Footprints platform and why the landscape of career opportunities is changing.
I look at the vital importance of the transferable skill sets that doctors possess and why it’s critical that doctors have access to diverse career opportunities - meaning they can make the impact they want and they are happier and healthier in a career they chose.
 
KEY TAKEAWAYS

Burnout amongst doctors is sky high and many want to use their transferable skills in different ways, beyond the usual career pathways
Doctors are reaching a point of burnout and leaving
An interview is a two-way process, the doctor attending the interview has made a decision to attend and the company is interviewing because they see someone who is an asset
We are not just a number or a statistic we are talented, ambitious human beings who joined medicine and healthcare to help and support patients
Medical careers were generally designed to be a one size fits all as it fits into workforce planning
A one size fits all solution is not a sustainable one and it will continue to be a problem as we move into the future of work
Doctors are one of the most talented workforces we have on this planet so it's critical that we make the most of their transferable skills and reach their potential for the benefit of everyone
