Frequent questions

What does a resident physician earn in Switzerland?

Residents start around CHF 8,000 gross per month (×13) per association recommendations, reaching CHF 9,500+ with training years. Senior physicians earn CHF 13,000–18,000 depending on canton and clinic; chief physicians substantially more.

Do you place candidates whose MEBEKO recognition is in progress?

Yes. If your recognition is underway, we time the start date accordingly. If it has not started yet, we take the MEBEKO procedure over: we file the application and cover the costs. We know cantonal requirements and advise on realistic timelines.

How discreet is an executive search?

We pass on a dossier with your name and documents only if you have agreed to it going to that institution. Without your name and contact details, we may present your profile to institutions that have a suitable role. Such a profile can also reach your current employer — tell your contact person where you do not want to be presented.
