Why Do I never get invited to NHS interviews?

And 3 things you can do to guarantee an interview!

Welcome to another weekend newsletter from HealthHireUK. Following on from last weeks newsletter, this week we are explaining why you are not being invited to NHS interviews.

The three main reasons you will fail to be invited to interview are:

No1. You fail to ensure you meet the essential and at least some of the desirable criteria on the job description, in fact you may not have even read the person specification at all. When applying to jobs, you must ensure you read the job description and person specification to ensure you are meeting the minimum criteria the employer is looking for.

No2. Your supporting information does not explain how you meet the essential and desirable criteria, this is how the recruitment department will choose who is invited to interview, failing to do this correctly is the number one reason for rejection. Most people simply do not know how to write these, you can either continue to be rejected, or you can let us write it for you! Click the link below to get started!

No3. You never arrange an informal visit to the department after you have made your application, this means you do not stand out from the hundreds of applicants. Making a visit to the department will ensure you stand out from the crowd, and you will be a familiar face by the time you are interviewed.
