Pre-Employment Structured Clinical interview (PESCI) - Perth

The Pre-Employment Structured Clinical Interview (PESCI) is a formal assessment used primarily in Australia to evaluate the clinical competence, communication skills, and ethical understanding of internationally qualified health practitioners seeking registration. Often required by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA), the PESCI is designed to determine whether a candidate is suitable for a specific position within the Australian healthcare system. It involves a panel of assessors who review a candidate’s knowledge, clinical reasoning, and decision-making abilities in the context of real-world scenarios relevant to their intended role. For applicants going through Oyamed, a PESCI preparation provider, structured support and tailored guidance are offered to help candidates meet the regulatory expectations and perform confidently during the interview.
