Approximately 300 junior doctors andmedical students attended the event.The NSW ANZCA table was well attended and questionsranged from “How do I become an anaesthetist?” to “How doI pass the primary exam?” and “How do I get a trainee job?”.There were also many questions about the curriculum changeand how it will affect training.A highlight of the day was a retrieval demonstration byCareflight, who flew in to extricate an injured child from a mockupplayground accident. This generated great interest amongattendees when it was revealed that anaesthetists are part ofthe retrieval team.Many thanks to NSW ANZCA staff and doctors who gave uptheir Saturday to talk about anaesthetics.Above clockwise from top left: Dr Richard Halliwell and Dr Greg O’Sullivan;Mock retrieval at the Australian Medical Association Careers Day; TheANZCA table.74 ANZCA Bulletin June 2012
