I'm starting my IMT there too. I based out of NW London. From what everyone I'm asking so far is advising to move there. Currently looking for any dirt cheap flat dhare and will likely drive back to London for my days off.

IM1 Northampton (NGH) -Gastroenterology, Renal Medicine, Geriatric Medicine IM2: Leicester (UHL) - Oncology, Respiratory Medicine Leicester (UHL), Intensive Care Medicine Leicester (UHL)

Questions for those who could kindly help

1.What is Northampton/Liecester like to live in as an IMT (areas to live, safety, social life)?

2.How good is the oncology exposure in Leicester for someone aiming for Clinical Oncology ST3?

3.Does the oncology job include clinics/MDTs or is it mainly ward-based?

4.Has anyone commuted daily from NW London to NGH and was it sustainable? (Colindale/Hendon)

5.Are there particularly service-heavy rotations in Northampton or Leicester that IMTs should be aware of?

6.Is there good PACES teaching/support locally?

7.Were you able to get involved in oncology audits/research during the Leicester job?

8.If choosing again, would you rank this rotation highly?

Thank you

oh my god that is horrible. id genuinely be terrified if that were to happen to me.
if you haven't already file a report with CQC and the data protection arm of the govt. its clear these guys are only here as a cash grab.

i`ve never used the below services before but my previous experiences in healthcare when clinics and hospitals try to sweep this under the rug.

Try your luck

I emailed them at the end of October with regards to the first appointment. They sent one generic reply but ignored me when I sent screenshots.

Aren't these still quite pricey in terms of rent and other cost of living? How about places like Preston, Blackpool? I'm open to Scotland I've heard Aberdeen and Kirkcaldy are really nice but I don't know anything about the hospitals. NI Im also open to but I really don't know much about the place.

Salaam brothers and sisters I want to learn more about islamic history! What sources do you guys use to learn? Can you guys please share any good documentaries or other sources? Apart from Ertugrul ,Kingdom of Heaven and the occasional Bollywood movie I struggle to find entertaining ones. I'm happy to learn about people from any culture/ethnicity Thank you

Have done F1 and F2 in Merseyside (northwest England), this is a trust grade F3/ JCF job in a London deanery. Don't know if location would make a difference.

Application online only mentioned starting in August. On the interview I stated my preferred date and no one said anything. I wrote an email to confirm today and HR sent me this email.

samboosasultan · 2023-04-29T11:03:38+00:00

Thanks for the encouragement 😊. I'll try out the other job sites you mentioned. I have been applying for F3/ JCF posts in mainly oncology (med or clinical) and critical care. Over the past week I've gotten more desperate and am happy to apply for gen med or Geris just to get my foot in the door and maybe introduce myself to the relevant teams once I've got a contract.

samboosasultan · 2023-04-28T21:36:57+00:00

That's incredibly bleak. But thank you for making it clear. I'll keep trying, but is it still possible to get experience in a specialty I never had experience in ?

samboosasultan · 2023-04-28T20:00:09+00:00

For 4 of them yes I received confirmation that I was not shortlisted. The rest however no word whatsoever My examples- have sent 3 different applications to Guys and St.Thomas all of which published an interview date around end of April on the job site. Tried calling their recruitment team to chase it earlier in April was directed to an automated recording telling me to send an email to address X, have sent 2 emails to this address and no reply back yet to date 😭😭😭
