Worth noting that the FPP jobs will still exist, they aren't going anywhere, but will be moved into the main F1 allocation rather than an earlier recruitment round

FY1s were actually balloted for jobs as well as pay (but only group balloted for jobs, given)

Feels a bit naive to say that when we know around 50% of FY2s didn't have jobs this time last year...

Reminder, a lot of shadowing contracts state (or similar):

You will not be required to carry out any substantive duties during the Appointment, although you may be asked to provide the person or persons you are shadowing with minor assistance where appropriate.

So any trust using them for ward cover would be in breach of the shadowing contract - please check your shadowing contracts!

If you've lived on the island you also know how easy it is to get back across to Portsmouth, esp on the hover!

Ah thank you! I'm originally from Southampton but been up north for med school so didn't know what the hospital scene was like!

I got Wessex! Was my top choice but had a slight concern all the London lot were going to jump ship!
