What do you think the utility of a group task is from the selector's perspective? What are they looking for?

Are there other benefits to taking it? I suppose having acted up will stand you well when applying for substantive posts. Is it competitive? if, as must be tempting, you decline, will they easily fill the post anyway? Personally I think it's a petty scam and you should decline to do band 8 work and ...

There's no dilemma here if you want to do a dclinpsy. One masters is totally relevant and improves your chances. The other is barely relevant, possibly even slightly harmful to your chances. I expect the selectors for the anatomy masters would be equally bewildered if you told them you intend to do ...

That is to say mandatory attendance is a stick forcing people to go. The carrots are the positive factors, probably many are the same as for other groups or treatment more generally.

I don't understand why you switched to a spouse visa. Wouldn't you be in a better position if you hadn't?

Check the policy yourself, don't rely on what people tell you it says.

Calculate your value to them (eg billable hours a year, work brought in, etc) minus the overheads and costs and any value they add to you, and bear this figure in mind when negotiating.

Isn't the most sensible thing to do to apply for recognition via the reciprocal arrangements? That is using the European union (recognition of professional qualifications) regulations 2015, SI 2015/2059. Maybe the European federation of psychologists http://www.efpa.eu or http://www.europsy-efpa.eu ...

It seems sensible to me.
