Check junk/spam folders

If you do not, firstly please check the 'spam' or 'junk' folders of your email account, and ensure that you are checking the account which corresponds to the email address you used to log in.

If the email is found in spam/junk, please mark it as 'not spam/junk' so that future email is delivered to your inbox.

Please note that the email may not arrive immediately upon submission of your application.

All emails visible in application account

Any emails sent to you via the application system will be stored in your candidate portal - ie your 'account', visible when you log in - in the 'My Messages' section, so you will be able to view these upon logging in.

If you have still not received an email over an hour after submitting your application, please contact our helpdesk at st3recruitment@rcplondon.ac.uk.

Personal & referees' details can be edited

If you need to amend any of your personal details (eg address, telephone number, etc.), you will still be able to do this via the application system after you have submitted.

Updating clinical referees' details, up until the date of your interview, is also possible after submission, if necessary.

No other details can be edited

However, it is not usually possible to alter any other details.

Answers to questions cannot be altered under any circumstances - even typing errors cannot be corrected – as it is your responsibility to ensure that your application is suitable for submission before you submit it.

Should you wish to information recorded in the equality & diversity section, you should email either the deanery/UoA handling your application at that point, or the RCP-SRO helpdesk: st3recruitment@rcplondon.ac.uk.
