pathology Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 I've been working at a business for a year, and a half now as a casual employee. I have around 1200+ hours, and I'm curious to know if casual workers are even recognized on medical school applications. Should I aim to switching for a part-time position?

DrOtter Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 I think as long as you can get someone to verify your activity, it should be fine. Also make sure to write your description on the ABS strategically to maybe highlight the experience? pathology 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
takasugi Posted November 8, 2019 Report Share Posted November 8, 2019 Yes They count informal things like caregiving, assisting your neighbour, caring for your disabled sibling so I think yours would definitely be recognized pathology 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-D- Posted November 12, 2019 Report Share Posted November 12, 2019 Definitely list it on your application, I had casual work on mine! I doubt they give a shit about the legal classification “part time” vs “casual” but rather what you did, how it helped you/informed you, and your commitment (number of hours and over what period of time). pathology 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
