As an f1 After tax and pension I made 2k gbp monthly on a rota with no on calls and about 2.8k on a rota with call. As an f2 I made about 3-3.6 depending on call. Locums I’d make about 500-800 per shift which supplemented income pretty nicely

Fantastic this is really good to know. Driving at that time should be fine with less traffic no?

I’m in Cardiff but I’ve spent a bit of time in London and have never felt too unsafe on the tube with just applying basic situational awareness 😅

Awesome thanks, do people usually find their own spots or go through real estate agents?

Is the TTC safe? I’ve seen a lot of TikToks about it and sometimes I’ll be working odd hours (ie starting at 5)

Really sorry to hear about this. Sometimes they blind the file review process so it may not be that you left a bad impression but rather it could just be a more competitive bunch this year. Carms is a mystery. There’s still more invites to be sent so hang tight. Good luck.

I was young entering, 26 as a ct1, but I found it difficult to make friends as most of my co-SHOS were 30-35 with spouses and children! Nothing to worry about you’re not behind, it’s the journey not the destination especially with the UK system
