Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Only worth considering as an immediate income source or a foot-in-the-door at a hospital for someone without healthcare work experience in Canada. It is a poor match for clinicians seeking meaningful non-clinical career progression.

Who should apply

IMGs and internationally trained healthcare graduates who need Canadian hospital exposure and a paycheck while building local experience; students or career-changers wanting entry into the hospital system; not suited to licensed clinicians seeking strategic or clinical-adjacent non-clinical roles.

CV angle

Frame real healthcare exposure honestly as transferable administrative strengths: patient-facing communication, appointment coordination, medical terminology fluency, confidentiality/PHIPA awareness, EMR/office software use, and multilingual customer service. Do not overstate clinical responsibilities; emphasize reliability, multitasking, and comfort in a fast-paced hospital environment.

Skills to highlight

  • Patient communication and customer service
  • Appointment scheduling and coordination
  • Medical terminology
  • Data entry and office software (EMR/Outlook)
  • Confidentiality and PHIPA awareness
  • Multitasking in high-volume settings

Role summary

A hospital clerical role combining typist and receptionist duties in a medical imaging department—greeting patients, answering phones, booking appointments, processing patient registration, and handling filing/typing tasks.
