Post preferencing

 

Applicants will be asked to preference all the posts in which they are interested. By preferencing more posts applicants will have a better chance of securing a post. If applicants choose only a limited  number of preferences it could be that they are unsuccessful in securing any post if they do not score highly at the selection centre for the posts they have preferenced.  Offers will be made in rank order by performance at the selection centre. Once offers have been made the system will also allow upgrades so that you can accept a higher preference post if that becomes available.

Posts available in Health Education England North working across the North East and Cumbria are listed in the tables below.

Please note: where there are '0' posts indicated, if you are interested in applying for these posts, please ensure you preference these posts as they may become avaiable should other posts not fill.
