I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at NHS (Durham, England) in Feb 2025
Interview
I was given two days notice of the interview. The questions were easy and the atmosphere was friendly. Unfortunately when I didn't receive an offer they told me the reason was because I hadn't come for a tour before the interview, not sure what time they think they gave me to do that, as I received the offer on the Saturday night and the interview was on a Tuesday. Also the position was advertised as full time and then when I arrived at the interview I found out the position was actually for 22.5 hours a week.
