Pursuing residency beyond a certain period would be
hard for International medical graduates due to
inevitable financial restraints. Hence, International
Medical Graduates seek work opportunities. which could
help them earn money and gain clinical experience at
the same time. I have searched through various
websites in different search engines for a work
opportunity for myself as an International Medical
Graduate (IMG). This article is a consolidation of
contents from more than ten websites. The conclusion
is that-there are health care job opportunities for
ECFMG-certified (the Educational Commission for
Foreign Medical Graduates -certified) international
medical graduates and it would be easier for non-visarequiring candidates. An entry-level job opportunity
may lead to another clinical job opportunity during
which the candidate could build on strong clinical
background in the United States of America and be
financially sufficient. Persistence is the key to success.
