Information on each participating specialty and deanery/UoA can be found within the specialties and deaneries/UoAs sections of the site.

The dates/posts section of this website contains information on the overall recruitment timeline, the numbers of post vacancies in each specialty and deanery/UoA, and the dates on which interviews will be held for each specialty at each deanery/UoA.

In addition to the above, an important point to consider is that of the recruitment model being employed by any specialty(ies) to which you are considering applying.

You may only make a maximum of one application to each specialty, but there is variation in how recruitment is organised by each specialty.

In some specialties you will apply to the deanery in which you wish to train, while applications to other specialties are made nationally to a lead deanery who organise and manage recruitment on behalf of all other deaneries.

Information to check before you begin an application includes ensuring you are eligible for any specialty programmes to which you are considering applying - via the am I eligible? section - and familiarising yourself with the recruitment process, through the how do I apply? section.

Each page/section of the application form has its own dedicated page within the application form section; including details of the application form scoring criteria.

If you are found to be eligible, and your application scores highly enough, you will progress to interview; if you are successful at interview, you will potentially receive a post offer and employment.

Candidates who are not successful may wish to consider alternative recruitment methods; potentially clearing, a second round, or deanery-managed local recruitment.

Should you be unable to find the information you are seeking, and/or you have a question relating to ST3 recruitment, you may find the solution in the FAQs section of the website.
