Are you wondering if veterinary locuming is for you?

If you’re thinking of chucking in your day job to pick up the Instagram-glamorous lifestyle of the footloose and fancy free, high rolling life of the locum, then this episode is for you!

In this week’s episode we look at 11 considerations I recommend you take into account before you rush to hand in your resignation.

#1 – unpredictability

#2 – admin

#3 – follow up and follow through

#4 – have lots of referees

#5 – >3 years post grad experience

#6 – you need to be a people person

#7 – travel & nights away

#8 – you need to be able to say “no”

#9 – money in the bank – Rainy Day Funds

10 – nowhere to call home

#11 – test drive a new job
