STP NHS Wales 2024

I haven’t seen a thread for this years STP in Wales yet. Seeing as the job adverts closed last week might be nice to know when people start hearing back for interviews! :smile:

Can you speak Welsh? If it comes to selecting between you and a Welsh speaker, they would choose the latter most of the time, even if they score below you.

I'm hoping it's soon too!
I applied for biochemistry in Wales, has anyone seen any stats for Welsh applications? I'm struggling to decide whether it's likely to be more competitive or less.
I'm not a Welsh speaker but I've said I would happily learn. Not sure if that counts for anything.

Yeah I am in the same position, can't speak Welsh but more than happy to learn. I haven't seen stats for the Welsh applications like NHS England STP publish. Hoping it is less competitive :smile:

Yeah it might be less competitive as it's slightly less well advertised, but then there's less positions so it could be that there's more applicants per position if that makes sense?

Hi there,
Has anyone been already contacted for an interview? On my side still nothing and my application status just says "submitted".

Best of luck for everyone
