Hey!

Great idea. Are you going through the medical or non medical route? I'm going through the non-medical and it will be my first time applying :smile:

Hi everyone, glad to see this thread and nice to meet you!
Hi everyone,

I am so glad to see this thread. I am also applying through non-medical route. Nice to see you all. I cannot see any space in the application form for a supporting statement. I am not sure where to make the case for suitability/interest/motivation for the ST on application form.

Hi, I am repeating this year and I had to carefully look for this, because somehow the form has changed and I knew it was there. I attach a screenshot of the printout that came in the pdf that you can genereta after submission. It is numbered 17, and after that you get to tick about the experience and write the statement.

Good luck with it all.

Thank you so much for your assistance. Much appreciated. After filling in forms on the NHS jobs or Trac systems, it takes a while to get used to Oriel. Good luck everyone.
Hi, Another question. In addition to the application form do we need to upload any documents i.e. passport copy, degree certificate etc into the document repository section as supporting evidence?

I have not uploaded any of this nor I remember having done so last year. It does say if applying for exceptional circumstances (carer / disability) proof has to be sent by email separately elsewhere, but not uploaded.
Thank you

I actually can't find the document repository section, where is it?
I'm applying for the first time for non-medical entry!

Hello, an F2 applying for the first time here! Does anyone know how the ranking process
works? I understand you rank locations if you get to interview stages but do you just rank deaneries or is it split into smaller areas? Looking at London so not sure if you are based in the whole of London or one specific part.

Hello. I am applying for special circumstances and in my form I am asked to state my Oriel PIN (so don't worry if you don't have this and you have done a normal application as it is not needed then). I don't have seem to find what this may be. Can anyone advise or help? Thanks!

Job Test Prep website sells tests, and some substancial time preparing. I actually got scored out by the situational judgement tests - possibly a speak English as a second language took too long to read things scenario. I run out of time on those and left five answered, and this threw my percentile. Just beware of timing people. Good luck to all.

Any tips on the "interview" would be greatly received (I know cannot share the content of it as such). For the 30 minutes I haver no idead what to expect / prepare / make sure I keep time...

Hi, you are getting confused. Look here: https://www.jobtestprep.co.uk/public-health-specialists This is where you can prepare for the tests :-) There are other pages with tests but this one is better
