Why others chose Wavelength to launch their careers

  • Wavelength has been able to source locum work for me much easier than other agencies. They helped with all the paperwork and accommodation details and met my needs wherever possible. Overall it was a really friendly experience.

    Dr Imran
    Surgical Registrar
  • I’ve used a few agencies but Wavelength has been by far the best which is why I now trust them to exclusively handle all of my locum placements. They have been terrific to work with, being proactive in contacting me about opportunities, optimising my contracts and following up on how the job is going.

    I’ve enjoyed the flexibility of the locum life in terms of being able to make choices about location, keeping things interesting by doing a variety of jobs and not being tied down to a long-term and rigid roster.

    Dr Kah Kit
    Medical Registrar
  • Wavelength was able to secure the jobs I wanted before they were advertised - their networks are extensive. I have gained more general surgical experience working with Wavelength as a Locum Doctor than I would have had if I just stayed in my full-time role. Learning from different consultants, theatre exposure and working across rural & regional hospitals has helped make me a better Doctor.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is the average locum Junior Doctor rate in Australia?

    Locum junior doctor rates can vary based on location, experience, speciality and urgency of the placement. You may often find that travel and accommodation are provided, or that you are provided with access to a fleet or hire car as part of your package. 

    • Locum Registrars can expect to earn between $115 - $300 per hour; 
    • RMO Locum Doctors can expect to earn between $85 - $160 per hour.

    • General medicine

    • Internal medicine

  • Will working with Wavelength cost me anything?

    No. Wavelength International does not charge its candidates a fee. Instead, we are paid by the employer when we successfully place a candidate in a job.

  • What services do you offer to support junior doctors throughout the recruitment process?

    Wavelength International offers a range of services to support junior doctors throughout the recruitment process, including: 

    • CV and cover letter review 
    • Interview preparation 
    • Salary and benefits negotiation 
    • In-house regulatory and migration services 
    • Post-placement support 
  • Is travel and accommodation included?

    We understand that the cost of travel and accommodation can be a barrier to locum work, especially for junior doctors. That's why we work closely with our clients to ensure that our locum doctors receive the best possible support. 

    In most rural and remote areas, our clients will provide both travel and accommodation for their locum doctors. However, if you are bringing your family with you, you may need to provide travel for them. Accommodation for additional family members may be available, but this is not always the case. 

    Travel is usually only paid for the initial travel to the placement and the final journey home unless otherwise negotiated. 

    City and metropolitan areas and major holiday centres such as the Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast in Queensland do not typically provide accommodation for locum doctors. 

    If you have any questions about travel and accommodation for a specific locum opportunity, please get in touch with your Wavelength International consultant.

  • What if I need to cancel my locum?

    Unexpected events can happen, so we understand that you may sometimes need to cancel a locum assignment. If you find yourself in this situation, please let your recruitment consultant know as soon as possible. 

    This will allow us to work with the hospital to find a replacement locum doctor and ensure that patient care is not disrupted. It will also help you to maintain a good relationship with the hospital for future locum opportunities.

  • What paperwork will I have to handle?

    We understand that the credentialing process can be daunting, especially if you're new to locum work. That's why we have a dedicated Recruitment Coordinator who can guide you through the process step-by-step. 

    We have also worked to streamline the credentialing process and move to a paperless system, which makes it easier and more convenient for our locum doctors.
