What to Look for in Your First or Next Practice: Evaluate the Practice Environment to Match Your Priorities

What to Look for in Your First or Next Practice: Evaluate the Practice Environment to Match Your Priorities

A stepwise approach to identifying and evaluating job opportunities can empower physicians to find jobs that match their priorities. Practicing medicine in a positive, supportive environment can lead to a truly joyful career but a job that is the wrong fit can lead to burnout and the need for disruptive job changes. Physicians, particularly those recently out of training, may feel overwhelmed when faced with critically evaluating their options in the job market. Medical training, with a competitive admissions process and a match system, conditions physicians to have an I ll take anything I can get attitude. But when searching for an attending job, it is important to adjust this mindset: you are in high demand and have many options. Your job is not to convince every clinic to hire you, it is to engage in an honest and open conversation with prospective employers to find a truly great fit.
