Default Does resigning from a hospital and joining another hospital

I understand that the healthcare movement policy where if you're currently employed in the hospital and were to move to another hospital, it will be a lateral movement where your job grade, salary etc remains the same.

However, I will like to check if you were to resign from the current hospital and took a break and applied for another hospital, does this fall under the lateral movement policy and the new hospital will not be able to increase your salary/job grade just because of your previous employment?

I was approached by a recruiter and that's what the recruiter shared and I did not know of this hence will like to clarify.

Thanks!

It depends. What was the reason for quitting?

For example, if a doctor faked vaccinations, he might not get hired.

Or hired at a very low pay.

I heard rumours that a few of my seniors previously left for private (clinical) practice and commanded a much higher salary after promotions. When they returned to interview at public hospital, they were offered a salary only marginally higher than their last drawn in public hospital, i.e., their private practice were not recognised as relevant experience.

even if not true, definitely worth checking - no smoke without fire and all that

If command a much higher salary, why would they come back to public healthcare?

Eg. If i earn about 8k now, but private is commission based and i can earn about 15k.
You think i come back public they can offer me 15k?
Of course they will offer 8k or taking into account how long i work in private, eg 1 or 2 years, they can give me mariginally higher for the extra 1, 2 years. Maybe 3% for 1 year, 6% for 2 years. Definitely not 15k.

They don't like quitters who return after pte paradise stints.

Some even get lower pay offers to test their sincerity.

Pte healthcare has always boasted higher pay for lesser work.

this one not Dr thread, i don't think got AHPs earn commissions in (private) clinical practice... but i'm a scrub junior in public practice only so cmiiw lol

as for why jump back public... in some private practices, their clinicals can be quite outdated, like developing their own guidelines which are not (current) evidence-based
