Applicants should meet the following requirements:

• Flexible schedule and availability during weekdays. Most of our work occurs Monday-Friday 8 am – 6 pm.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills
• Comfortable learning case details and role-playing with learners; training is provided
• Comfortable with non-invasive physical exams with small groups of learners

SP interviews usually take place twice a year.

As casual employees of MUN, SPs will be paid for their work.

All interviews will be conducted in person only. There is no option to complete the interview online.

What might disqualify you from being an SP:

• You fall within an age group that is already over-represented in the program
• You have a physical condition that might make it challenging to standardize you with other SPs (if so, please refer to our Teaching Patient program)
• You've been accepted into medical school or have written the MCAT in the past year.
• Your availability does not meet the needs of our program.
