A Part Time F1 job typically refers to a part-time position available to international students in the U.S. who are on an F1 visa. F1 students are generally allowed to work up to 20 hours per week during the academic term and full-time during holidays, but only in on-campus jobs or specific off-campus roles authorized by USCIS, such as CPT or OPT. It’s important to check with your school’s international student office to ensure compliance with visa regulations.

As a Part Time F1 Doctor, you can expect to work a portion of the hours of a full-time Foundation Year 1 Doctor, often involving a mix of weekday, weekend, and sometimes evening or night shifts, depending on the department's needs. Your key responsibilities include clinical assessments, managing patient clerking and documentation, prescribing medication under supervision, and liaising with senior doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals. Part-time arrangements may offer greater flexibility for work-life balance, but you will still be integrated into a multidisciplinary team and participate in essential ward duties and handovers. This structure provides valuable firsthand experience in diverse medical specialties while allowing more personalized scheduling.
