I put in all service development projects I've done, such as inputting into care pathways, service evaluations or audits. Most services or trusts have newsletters or something similar and I wrote some really small pieces in there and classed that as a publication, they can also be referenced even t...

I'm not sure there are any clear patterns, but if I were to try to draw out some trends the courses that have the lowest ratios of applicants to places seem to be those that are perceived as geographically far flung (East Anglia, Glasgow, Edinburgh, South Wales), the larger courses that are perceive...

Its the odds, the ratio between applicants and places. So the worst odds are from the 500 applicants for the 10 places at Coventry and Warwick (50:1). The best odds are from Salomans where they have almost the same number of applicants for 34 places (15:1).

Here you go, I made a ready-reckoner for you:

It didn't upset me. It was just slightly infuriating because you have uncritically absorbed rumours we have worked for 12 years to disband, and didn't look at any of the existing forum content (including numerous pinned threads and wiki entries) that deal with these topics, despite coming on here to...

This is an infuriating post for a number of reasons: 1) You clearly haven't read any of the many posts on the forum that deal with these ridiculous rumours about "people with PhDs that have been turned down, as well as people who have been gaining experience for up to ten years, who have been turned...

Is one legally entitled to feedback from interviews? Yeah, this. If notes are made about your performance and stored you are legally allowed to request it is my understanding although if I am incorrect I am happy to withdraw that :) That's a data protection right, but isn't the same thing as feedba...

So, your plan was to ask who is prepared to breach copyright and risk their professional standing (and up to 6 months imprisonment and a fine of up to £50k if convicted), and our ability to run this forum, in order to save you less than a fiver and deprive our professional body of it's rightful inco...

I agree with all the above.

they pay you rather than the other way round!

This!

I love that twitter name

There are several prior threads about this if you search. Short version is it depends on your career stage and which country you plan to go to.

Sure, just 3 or 4 people each, that's what you've worked out from your guesswork/maths, and is just a requirement you expect clinicians to do as an unpaid service when competing with other demands? And of course a brief email isn't good enough so you want them to each phone you and give you personal...

Why would you be surprised at needing to request feedback or being given a brief email response? I'd have thought that is more than most courses offer. They interview a lot of people! And why on earth would it be "unfair" if different members of the panel give feedback in different ways, or they gav...

Almost no chance of getting an AP role, I'd say. So I'd focus on trying to get a paid post doing something relevant - working in a day hospital for older people with dementia, a group home with people with learning disabilities, a mental health ward, a children's home, a school, or a charity as a nu...
