Who is this guide for?
The guide can be used for both clinical and non-clinical NHS job applications. It is suitable for anyone applying for NHS roles from Band 3 through to Band 8A.
Whether you're applying for your first NHS role, changing departments, moving into a new area or progressing to a more senior position, the principles in this guide can be adapted to your individual job application.
What if my specific job title isn't mentioned?
The guide cannot cover every single NHS job title or profession that exists — and it doesn't need to.
Instead, it focuses on the principles and techniques that can be applied across NHS applications, giving you a framework that you can adapt to your own job description, person specification, experience and role.
