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-visa requiring 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.
