Yes, it is possible to find work as an MBBS graduate without undertaking a postgraduate (PG) pathway.
MBBS graduates can work as general practitioners. Medical officers in hospitals and clinics, or within government health services are also options.
There are also opportunities available in public health, research, and healthcare administration/public service. Most commonly the work opportunities are available through a pharmaceutical agency, medical writing, and health insurance companies.

No, doing a PG degree after an MBBS is not compulsive. Still, those interested in practicing in superspeciality or looking forward to teaching fields will mandatorily require it. PG courses are oriented toward advanced training in the art, providing specialised knowledge and ending with certifications like MD or MS, depending on the kind of special course chosen for pursuit. Many medical professionals opt for PG to gain greater expertise and qualify for more specialised roles in healthcare.

AIIMS Madurai does not offer any PG courses considering the fact that the institute is relatively new as compared to other AIIMS of the country. A candidate who is interested in completing his PG can opt for other AIIMS available in India.
