Recruitment Process

If you’re looking for a specific role, you can either search our Current Vacancies or go directly to www.jobs.nhs.uk and search there.

If you find a suitable role, and your experience fits the bill, you should register and complete the online application form and submit it through the NHS jobs site.

You will automatically receive an email confirming receipt of your application. Within two days of the closing date, your application – along with any others – will be forwarded to the recruiting manager.

Around three weeks later, you’ll receive another email; to let you know whether or not we’d like you to come for an interview. If you do have an interview, this email will include details of the time, date and venue. While attending the interview, you’ll also fill out an Occupational Health Questionnaire.

Two working days after the interview, we’ll contact you and let you know if you’ve been successful. Confirmation of this will be sent in writing.

If you have been successful, your references will be requested (if they haven’t already) and your Occupational Health Questionnaire sent off for processing. During this time the Recruitment team may also need to contact you by phone or email to confirm some details.

Once your references have been received and checked, and your Occupational Health clearance given, your new manager will contact you to arrange a start date, which the recruitment team will confirm in writing.

Then all you have to do is look forward to joining us.
