• About ACE...

    The ACE process was developed to simplify the national application processes for new graduates wanting to apply for their first positions nationally across Health New Zealand. The ACE proceess simplifies the recruitment process and methods for graduates by using a centralised match process which simultaneously considers the graduates employer preference as well as the employer's preference of graduates.

    ACE is a tried and tested process and has been in place for RMO's for 20 years and is the most effective way to gain a first year House Officer (PGY1) position for graduates who are able to start at the beginning of the training year as well as those who are not.

    The ACE process uses a centralised matching process. After placing each graduate’s preferences against each employer’s preference of applicants, because the ACE process ensures that each successful graduate receives only 1 offer of employment, as each position for each employer is filled, these graduates are removed from the list of available candidates, opening up positions for other graduates, simultaneously across all 20 employer sites across the country. A full explanation on the matching process and its priorities can be found in the ACE Match Overview section.
