Shortlisting

All correctly submitted applications will be considered. Those which pass the long listing stage ( which considers eligibility to apply for that post) will go on to be scored. Applications will be shortlisted against the nationally agreed person specification, using a scoring system. The top scoring applicants will be invited to interview. The Deanery will invite more people to interview than there are posts available as this makes it more likely that they will be able to make an offer that will be accepted.

Less Than Full Time (LTFT) posts

Working Less Than Full Time: Guidance for 2012 recruitment round.

  • Any trainees wishing to train on a less than full time (LTFT) basis must be assessed for eligibility by their Deanery prior to attending the interviews.
  • Trainees must contact the Deanery in closest proximity to where they live to be assessed for eligibility
  • Trainees wishing to train LTFT must indicate this on the equal opportunities section of the application form.
  • Trainees wishing to train LTFT will be required to bring their certificate of eligibility to work less than full time to the interviews.

Offers Process

Receiving Offers

Appointments to training programmes or posts will be offered to the candidates who ranked the highest in interviews. Not all candidates deemed eligible for appointment by their interview panel would be offered a post. This is because there could be several eligible applicants for a particular post, in which case, the post will be offered to the person with the highest score.

  • Follwing you interview, the relevant College or Deanery will decide whether to offer you a training programme.
  • You will be notified of offers via email or text.
  • If you are unsuccessful you will receive a message to let you know this.
