When applying to this specialty in this recruitment round, you will not need to give preferences of particular posts, regions, rotations etc. at the time of applying. If you are subsequently long/short-listed for interview, you will be invited to give preferences of all posts available nationally at a later stage of the recruitment round.

Please note that your answers in the “self-assessment” section of the application form will be used for shortlisting purposes and so please make sure you allow enough time to answer these questions fully and honestly. NB. Persistent over scoring may be subject to probity investigation, which could result in your application being withdrawn.
