Hospital pharmacy Pre-registration Applications (Pharmalife) 2017/2018

London gives you access to HCAS



TLC is new for this year, no one has had experience under this new change.

Which is what like 20K?? 21K?? Is it higher in London??

Yeah about a month, you?

Do people feel that their statements are unique?

I feel mine is a bit generic! But not sure how to make it not so much ..

Statements for? You mean profile questions??
I've tried to be specific

Where were your placements? Are you applying to those hospitals?

Like specific in what way? Placement wise or like where youd like to specialise after rotations?

Apart from CMFT where else you looking at applying for?

TLC, West Mids and unsure yet

Which is your west midlands priority?

I'm only applying to one, so the prioritization exercise does not apply.You?

Oh also me! Which one? UHB foundation trust.

Will there be interviewers from other west midlands choices there?

Are all interviews in the same place?

... So it will be higher than 21K?

Also does anyone know what pre reg normally do for accommodation? Do you lot plan to live on hospital if available on site?

Really? That does not sound right... :/ Do you know the reasoning why they were rejected?*

in terms of pre-reg pay for the recent cohort, people in london were payed 25.6-28.3k. the minimum in hospitals is around £22k.

In contrast, community people get 10-19k despite (from personal experience) having a more challenging pre-reg (lack of learning resources and opportunities vs hospital, more manual labour, less breaks, essentially being thrown in the deep end vs gradually reaching there)

regarding accomodation, the bigger trusts usually offer it but you do have to pay rent (usually £600/month + )

No idea about ucl trust tbh (I know people who say its clinical ) but check 1 of my earlier posts about guys and sits interview (its the same about all format for all hospitals in kings college trust. I will say if you have aamer safdar, for the love of god, don't mention anything about diuretics of any 'fozin' anti-diabetic drugs else he will tear you a new one. Abd at the same time, be

And at the same time, be aware that not all hospital medicines information unit heads are aware of completely new drugs, so dont be too overwise about new guidelines (about a month or 2 weeks prior is ok) else youll have to explain a lot
