Hiring timeline in South Dakota

With South Dakota in the compact as participating non-SPL, a candidate licensed in another member state can apply through the IMLC instead of a full application to the South Dakota Board of Medical and Osteopathic Examiners.

Ask the board whether this option fits your start date: Temporary permit for supervised practice in state institutions; locum tenens certificate.
