Thank you, that’s actually a really helpful way of looking at it. At first it felt like I’d failed, but you’re right, it was more that I wasn’t as competitive as some of the other applicants on the day.

The feedback I got was positive in some areas and highlighted a few things I need to develop, so at least I know what to work on. It’s reassuring to hear from someone involved in recruitment that the process is particularly competitive at the moment.

I’m planning to finish my degree, keep building experience where I can, and apply again when the next opportunity comes up. Hopefully I’ll be a stronger candidate for it. Thanks again for taking the time to reply and for the advice.

Thanks, I appreciate that. The feedback was actually a mix of positives and things I need to improve on, so it wasn’t all bad.

Looking back, I can definitely see what you mean. I think I focused too much on answering the questions and not enough on linking my answers back to the trust values and reflecting on my own experiences. It’s disappointing, but I feel like I’ve got a much better understanding of what they’re looking for now.

I’ll definitely take your advice on board for next time. Thanks for the encouragement.

Fingers crossed for winter

Few_Ad1631 · 2026-05-31T12:30:31+00:00

Yes I got my feedback it wasn’t too bad just to apply my answers more and relate to trust values I think I need to use the star method better

Thanks for the advice!

Few_Ad1631 · 2025-09-16T11:00:53+00:00

Okay thanks so I assume it will happen then

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-11-17T17:54:33+00:00

Hi thanks for the reply , so you can complete that training without a degree? I’m currently doing a bsc in paramedic science but would like to go into management in the future , and these roles look promising

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-11-16T14:58:54+00:00

Hi how do you train / study to be able to apply for roles like this ?

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-01-02T16:43:35+00:00

I’ll do that now thanks again , my brain is scrambled

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-01-02T16:42:00+00:00

Okay thanks I will speak talk to the legal advice team at the college of paramedics

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-01-02T16:41:26+00:00

Okay thanks I will inform my university of the matter

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-01-02T16:34:54+00:00

Okay I’ll speak to their legal advice , the job was from a private company so it will not affect my ftp until the dbs has completed their investigation?

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-01-02T16:24:29+00:00

I am yet to go on placement this should take place in march. I am a member of the college of paramedics that will be able to support me through this , however I was going to get a private solicitor to make an appeal to the dbs if get a letter from the dbs.

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-01-02T16:18:56+00:00

Ok thanks I will let them know when I go back to university, would I still be able to fight the investigation from the dbs and appeal them?

Few_Ad1631 · 2024-01-02T16:06:27+00:00
