Healthcare science (clinical physiology) 2011

I've had an offer come through from leeds on ucas, but I don't know how to get started on applying for trainee jobs :s does anyone know?
I've had a look on NHS jobs but there are no trainee positions on there

Congrats I'm in the same situation with this course, so happy to get my offer through! I think the way it works is that Leeds will write to us and let us know about all the positions that will be available in the Yorkshire area (20 I believe) and we pick which ones we want to apply for. I think we'll have to fill out forms to apply for these and then there are interviews for them all around May time (they said they were planning on doing them all on one day so that people wouldn't have to keep travelling in and getting time out of work/school). I'm keeping an eye out on NHS jobs as well though but I don't think they'll start appearing on there just yet.

Wahooo! Congrats on your offer too
Okay, so I'm doing the right thing by constantly checking nhs jobs? haha, yeah maybe there will be more on there when its gets nearer to march/april sort of time. Which interview day did you go on? Are you doing a-levels at the moment?

Interview for cardiolgy and respiratory physiology - swansea in febuary

Hi everyone

I have applied to Manchester, Leeds and Swansea. I had my interview at Leeds on the 25th Jan and received an offer yesterday I'm sooo excited!! I was wondering if anyone knew how long it will take for them to send through some information? Has anyone had anything sent to them yet?

I also have an interview at Manchester tomorrow... eek Anyone going??

when did you send your ucas off?

i have my university of manchester interview tomorow :\ and got rejected from leeds

hey, for those looking to apply for trainee jobs as a backup it seems they have changed it this year and only science graduates with 2.1+ can apply if anyone finds anything different please let me know
so hows everyones applications going?

I am in the same position, I have had an offer from Leeds, I had an interview from Swansea and still waiting to hear form them. For Leeds though has anyone had anything through the post from them explaining applying for trainee jobs on the nhs website? none seem to be on there?! I' m worrying haha.

It's strange not hearing anything yet! The lady told me they would be slow sorting it all out so maybe that is it, we'll just have to wait. Leeds will be my first choice but Im still unsure about accommodation and everything because of not knowing where my hospital placement will be.

I was on the tuesday... think it was the 25th Jan? They only let us know on the Friday so a bit short notice! Which were you at, maybe I saw you there yeah, I figure if we do both things then we can't go wrong! Apply for any through NHS jobs and wait to see if Leeds send us info as well. From what I've read from people who've done it in the past it can take a couple of months for them to start appearing though and at our presentation she said they'd be trying to do one day for all the interviews around May. Nah, I'm on an Access course right now. Kind of the same as A levels but squished into one year instead and for people over 19. Be interested to see who else has got offers!

Yeah i was there on that day too haha! I was talking to someone in the waiting room before we went in and she'd done an access course.. maybe that was you
did you have an interview at man met? i still haven't heard back from them yet :s

Has anyone received any information from Leeds about applying to jobs? I've been looking at the NHS website every few days but not quite sure what i'm looking for? Does anyone know any more about what we're supposed to do?

Just in case anybody hasn't received it, Rhona sent out an email today giving a little bit of info on the placements available (nothing new really - just which places are taking students and whether Rhona thought it was reasonable to commute to/from Leeds and the best way to do this e.g. walking/car/public transport) and saying that we should now be checking for these placements to apply for them through the NHS jobs website - she said they'll all be up in April/May and should be up from April 14th onwards but some might take longer to appear than others. They're trying to do interviews on 2nd June but some places might not be able to hold them on this day, so they'll make alternative arrangements with applicants. So basically, sign up to NHS Jobs if you haven't already and start keeping your eyes peeled!

And received a letter in the post with the same information today.
