The Pre-Employment Structured Clinical Interview (PESCI) is an assessment tool used by the Australian Health Practitioner Regulation Agency (AHPRA) to evaluate the clinical competence, communication skills, and professional behavior of internationally qualified health practitioners seeking registration in Australia. Specifically designed for those whose qualifications do not immediately meet Australian standards, the PESCI ensures that candidates possess the necessary knowledge and practical skills to provide safe and effective care in the Australian healthcare context. Conducted by approved interview panels, the PESCI typically includes structured scenarios and questions related to clinical decision-making, ethical practice, and understanding of local healthcare systems. It plays a critical role in safeguarding public health and maintaining high professional standards within Australia's regulated health professions.
