Applicants must provide proof at time of application of their working rights that allow them to work full time, for a 12 month period from the commencement date of the program.
Employer Nomination Sponsorship (457 Visa) cannot be provided for those employed on the Queensland Health Graduate Programs, therefore to be eligible overseas students must have full working rights that allow them to work full time for a minimum of 12 months.
Those graduates on student visas who would require sponsorship in order to take up a full time position are therefore generally not eligible to apply.

What happens if I am unable to attend an interview?
As the face-to-face interview is an essential component of the interview process, if you are unable to attend an interview, it is within the panels' discretion that a telephone interview (teleconference) can be completed.
If you are applying from overseas or interstate it is best to be available at the time of the interview. The panel chair will endeavour to contact you at the earliest possible time so that you can organise travel arrangements.
Can I accept an offer prior to having registration?
We are aware that you may require some time to obtain registration prior to starting on the graduate program and the recruitment process is timed to allow registration to be in place prior to the start date.
What happens after I have accepted the offer?
Once you have confirmed your acceptance of your offer of employment by telephone or email, the Discipline Coordinator will notify the Statewide Recruitment Services Hub of your appointment. Statewide Recruitment Services Hub will then create your employment agreement and send your commencement pack to you as soon as possible. Statewide Recruitment Services Hub will also be in contact with you regarding several requirements which you must meet before commencing work (pre-commencement requirements.)
What are pre-commencement requirements?
All applicants are required to complete commencement forms before starting with Queensland Health.
These forms include:
What happens after completing the Graduate Program?
Graduates who are offered a position within Queensland Health will be notified of their appointment by telephone (unsuccessful applicants will be notified by email). Confirmation of appointment is dependant on the outcome of a Criminal History Check.
Graduates will need to complete various forms on commencement with Queensland Health for payroll purposes, identification badges, etc. Graduates will need to supply a certified copy of their birth certificate or 100 points of ID (i.e. driver's license), proof of Registration with the appropriate Board and proof of vaccination against Hepatitis B.
The program will commence with an Orientation Program. Like other employees, graduates will be on probation for the first three months of employment.
