Hi i'm currently a second year Biomedical science student, i wanted to do a NHS placement so i could complete my registration portfolio and then go on to register as a biomedical scientist after graduation. However i was not accepted for any of the NHS placements. On the bright side, i have been accepted for a bioscience technical placement at university.
Right now I'm really confused what to do in the future, i really wanted to become a biomedical scientist, but without an NHS placement, the chances of becoming a biomedical scientist after graduation are really really low as trainee biomedical scientist positions are rare.
What other jobs could i do with a Biomedical science degree plus one years worth of work experience in a bioscience technical team.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. THANKS

You can still work as a boimedical scientist, just probably not in the NHS. Locum, Bupa ad other private hospitals would easily give you a job

You could apply for healthcare scientist or trainee clinical scientist positions too - they are very competitive but the placement would serve you good I think.
It's really good you're getting a placement in industry though, there seem to be plenty of industry jobs. Do you know what kind of things you'll be doing on your placement?

Hi everyone thanks for all the advice, the placement I'm doing is an internal placement at university. But i have great news, i have just been offered an interview at a NHS hospital to work in the clinical chemistry department so i can complete my portfolio, so hopefully if i get in all my worries will be over and il be able to become a biomedical scientist
i am desperate for this position.
Really hope to get this hospital placement now, otherwise i will have to think about doing other things which have been suggested.
