Medical Internship(house Job) Difficult To Get by laurelxy(m): 1:45pm On Feb 12, 2015
I am a medical graduate in 2014 from one of the respectable medical schools in Nigeria in the south west.since graduation it has been very hard trying to secure housejob placement In any hospital.I don't know why it's so difficult getting one, most of my colleagues who have actually secured got based on the fact they either knew a politician, cmd, a top official in the hospital e.t.c, there is hardly any exam conducted, even when exams are conducted they are not picked based on merit.one of my friend recently made a quotation, "pls don't graduate it's a trap" though am really not in support, but I understand his frustration. what's the solution pls

Op, that's what the situation is in this Country.
Medical doctors have to know someone and present their recommendation before having any opportunity to get a job in any government facility.
Unfortunately, these are virtually the only places offering such programs in Nigeria.

In fact presently, that is no more sufficient, some are further made to pay hundreds of thousands before having their appointment letters handed over to them.

No more about your area of interest or the passion, but using connections to get into any available position, which ideally should be occupied by persons with keen interests.

That's why our health system is a joke.

Imagine doctors in India doubting whether a doctor's report from Nigeria was actually written by a medical doctor. undecided

Wish you all the best in your career.

Have you tried applying to hospitals in the North? Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital just did their interview yesterday.
My advice to you is this, check the MDCN approved hospitals for housemanship online, write out the ones in the North, check for their contact online, write your application letter and go to the nearest post office.
Can u imagine that less than 20 people usually apply to these places? Where I'm currently doing my housemanship only 7 of us came for interview....don't wait for the South or West. My 2 cents

Thank you for this advice. Unfortunately, security challenges in d country has made guys reject offers in the North. I did my housemanship 5yrs ago down south but what fresh medical graduates go through is shocking. Corruption simply worsen every year. We have to move for CHANGE and control our destiny.
