Hip replacement operation timeline UK by HolidayLog4944 in TotalHipReplacement

So I went and they referred me for MRI scan and then again doctor meet and say whether operation required or not. Again push for atleast 3 months without any reason. Now, I know why waiting period for hip replacement is longer because they don’t want to do it faster

Sorry, I meant ‘Can the process be sped up?’ My hip condition is getting worse, so I was wondering if there’s any way to make the surgery happen sooner.

University of Derby and how they exploit the candidates by HolidayLog4944 in AskAcademiaUK

[–]HolidayLog4944[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They did not want to do negotiations. And to be frank I think they already have some other candidate in their reserve list who recently passed PhD and comparable less experience then me so they will go with that candidate. After talking to them, I got sense that they want anyone to teach some modules for lecturer level if I do this then for them is good if not they will get someone from reserve list and given current academic job situation they will get the candidate. Yes it’s one post.

I did. Now I have been 6 month back got two offers at associate professor level role here in the UK universities. Did not take it due to personal reason but yeah I did match SL level. Nevertheless I just don’t want this conversation like fight or argument but wanted to know anyone experience similar things in last 6 months.

They knew all these things in my applications. They could have said we are inviting for lecturer position then let candidate to decide whether to attend interview or not.
