STP NHS Wales 2023

I haven’t seen a thread for this years STP in Wales yet but I have been offered an interview!! Just wondering does anyone know if it works in the same way as the English one where they only give interviews for the number of posts? Also any advice about the interview process in Wales? Like what sort of questions they are going to ask? Any help is appreciated!

Did you apply through the trac.jobs link that pops up from the specialisms or through NHS Jobs?

I applied for Biochemistry. Guess the interview process is different for each specialism. It was quite clear in my email so I’m sure it’s not something you have to do

So I applied to cardiac science and also respiratory and sleep science as a prospective Sport and Exercise Science grad (averaging 2:1), Ive been invited to interview for respiratory and sleep but not heard back from cardiac science yet. Looking forward to an update. Has anyone else heard anything or been invited to interview for these specialisms?

I emailed HEIW on the 9th of March for an update and they said Cardiac Science had the highest number of applications and it has made shortlisting a complex task, but apparently good progress is being made and they anticipate we "will receive an email with your outcome quite soon" but no indication of when. Hope this helps :smile:

From what I could find out for pharmaceutical sciences last year, it was 10 people per post. Not sure whether that was actually the case but I spoke to 4 other people who were interviewed so at least 2 people per post were interviewed.
