I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at NHS (Harlow, England) in Jul 2021
Interview
Was straight forward and welcoming. Interviewer was knowledgeable about the role and asked questions relevant to it. Queried the relevent areas of my CV along with experiences in a similar role.
Not very difficult, but you have to be prepared. Networks do not matter, the most important thing is loving your job and being prepared to answer the questions. Overall not a bad experience.

Question 1
Why i wanted to work as a nurse? How i would describe myself
Great process looking at whole person, good competencies and questions asked. Made to feel comfortable and timescales shared. Follow up not needed. Good understanding of my cv before hand. All stages communicated well to me in advance.
As expected. Application via NHS jobs. Interview with a panel of three people from the relevant department. Asked about the role, and a selection of about six competancy based interview questions.
