Advanced Trainee Selection and Matching

The Advanced Trainee Selection and Matching Service (ATSM) is used to assist recruitment processes by some hospitals and specialty groups in Victoria, Tasmania and New South Wales.

The Postgraduate Medical Council of Victoria (PMCV) provided the 2022 ATSM service.

The ATSM service will cease from 2023 onwards, as advised in our April 2022 communications. Some specialty groups have indicated an intention to continue to use the PMCV service for their matching and recruitment in future years. More information will be made available on the PMCV website in due course.


2022 outcome

The 2022 ATSM service had 752 applicants for 366 positions. 17 matches were run in 2022, resulting in 366 successful applicant-position matches.
