2013 ST3 recruitment
Applications to 2013 ST3 posts in the first round of recruitment are no longer being accepted (as of 1pm, Wednesday 20 March 2013).
A second round of recruitment to ST3 posts will be held later this year - likely late summer/autumn 2013. More information on this will be made available on the future recruitment page of the ST3 recruitment website.
Further information
For information on applying to ST3, plus details of eligibility criteria, participating deaneries and specialties, the application form, interviews, offers, FAQs, and all other ST3 recruitment information, please visit the ST3 recruitment website.
In particular - while the general application/recruitment process will be largely the same across all participating specialties, different specialties will employ slightly different methods of recruitment depending on numbers of vacancies, scale of recruitment, etc.
Such variation is examined on the recruitment models page of the ST3 recruitment website.
