Fatima do look into the degree, what jobs you can get with it and most importantly how much demand there is for it. If your trying to get into a job which hardly any vacancies come up in a year imagine how competitive it must be. I've done a biomed degree and just completed a masters in infection and immunity but I'm struggling to get a trainee biomedical scientist role and even a medical laboratory assistant. About 1-3 roles pop up a month in London for trainee biomeds so probably 15-35 jobs a year which is rediculous. Probably the same number of vacancies as some specialisms for the STP. There's a good number of qualified biomed jobs but it's the training which is scarce. I was looking at going for the STP but there aren't much qualified clinical scientist jobs out there unless the hospital that trains you give you the job there after training. I was looking at going into cardiac sciences but I have not seen one job Pop up for a clinical scientist in that specialism. It's generally microbiology, immunology, blood sciences and biochemistry though these specialisms the competition is 1/100 per vacancy. Do keep some backup jobs in mind if you can't get a trainee job at the moment.Covid doesn't help either reducing the number of vacancies of jobs. I've actually started doing a course in finance now. There's a lot more demand for jobs in this sector so hopefully less competition plus pay is better. I could be earning the same as a senior biomedical scientist in a few years less if I worked in finance and be earning much more in the time it took me to get to that senior position.I don't mean to put you off but it is a tough world out there. I used to think I'll get into the STP, train for 3 years in cardiac sciences then work as a qualified clinical scientist and do the HSST to become a consultant but it's just too little the number of trainee vacancies out there compared to the number of people who qualified in this field.
