When you get shortlisted, you need to submit a Certificate of Health, as an alternate I wasn't required to do this earlier on. I recommend checking your information ahead of time. Take a look at the form, make sure you know that you can get all the answers. You will be required to get tested for tuberculosis, so make sure you schedule that as soon as you know you have been shortlisted or upgraded.
Now, most important of all, because all that first paragraph is pretty obvious, is getting a DOCTOR to sign it. You need an MD. It doesn't mean your "doctor," since that connotation basically means primary care physician to most of us. My "doctor" is a family nurse practitioner. I have not seen a proper MD in years. My FNP prescribes my medications and does my appointments and everything else. So, when I dropped off my paperwork, I needed to state that I needed an MD to sign the form, rather than my doctor.
This is a blog to chronicle my experiences in applying for JET: the stress, the tips, the things I'm changing, the things I'm doing and everything else. If, really when, I finally get in, this will become my blog about my experiences in the JET Program. But, for now, this will be somewhere to go through advice, create advice, and leave a detailed trail about applying for JET. Hopefully this helps me with my current application and helps future applicants!
