Re: finding jobs
OK, well I'd suggest you start your own thread as this is about radiology, that way more people with experience of your occupation will answer as well.
Also, if you can say whereabouts you hope to go that would be helpful. And whether or not you already have PR or a visa as that will influence the answers you are given.

Re: finding jobs
I don't wish to derail Heidi40's thread, but I don't see a point in making a new one when there seems to have been some more radiographers find their way in here.
So can I quickly ask, did you guys do the CAMRT exam before / after / during getting a PR.
I read that there website had a jobs database for members on it, but I'm guessing if heidi is having trouble its not as good as all that, so next question.
Once passing CAMRT, did you reigster for multiple provinces of interest and hope to find a job in one, or look for a job then apply to that provinces gov body if you found one?

Jobs, depends on the province. Not many full time jobs in Ontario.
Radiography which is acquiring the images including CT and IV injections. Radiologists are the physicians who interpret the images and carry out procedures such as angiography.

I took mine before PR. Provinces have differing rules on how you register with the governing body and so how you apply to CAMRT. In Ontario you have to be approved by CMRTO (The equivalent to HPC) before you can write the exam.

I was thinking of doing that, but with target areas being BC, which I believe is register after CAMRT and Ontario, which as you say is Pre-CAMRT, I think I'm looking at a logistical nightmare of test taking!
Did you take the test in the UK or go to Canada? I've seen mixed reports on other websites whether or not we can take the test here (financially thats the best option for me, but I'll never knock a trip to Canada!)
Rather ironically I saw a perm full time Interventional/Rotational position in Hamilton a few months ago, that would have been perfect for me!

Re: finding jobs
There will be quite a few radiographer jobs up for grabs in BC shortly.
