This page contains information on the dates on which interviews are being held within each specialty, at each deanery/UoA.
Round 1 dates only
Please be aware that the dates contained within this page currently relate to recruitment round 1 only.
Deanery/specialty-specific interview dates for recruitment round 2 will be published here as they become available; this will likely be later in the year, around July/August 2012.
See the timeline and round 2 pages of this website for more information on recruitment round 2.
Information subject to change
We must stress at this stage that interview dates are still being determined and the information in the tables below is provisional only and subject to change. We will update this as regularly as is possible, and will make any changes clear as necessary.
Please click on the heading of the relevant specialty below to reveal that specialty's round 1 interview dates in participating deaneries/UoAs. Please note that any deaneries that have specialties marked as n/a means that deanery is not recruiting in round 1 for that particular specialty.
Non-participating deaneries/UoAs and 'tbc'
In some cases, a deanery/UoA may have no vacant posts within a specialty, and as such will not be participating; we will make this clear above the interview dates table for each specialty.
Where an interview date is noted as 'tbc', this denotes that the deanery/UoA has not been able to confirm an interview date at this point, nor possibly their participation in recruitment to the specialty.

‹ Rheumatology ›
Deanery 'clusters'
In 2012, England & Wales deaneries will be acting in 'clusters' for the purposes of recruitment to rheumatology. That is, in each region of England/Wales, neighbouring deaneries will merge and pool resources to form a single UoA, in which all posts within the constituent deaneries are included.
At interview, candidates will be given the opportunity to give preferences of all available posts within the overall UoA cluster.
So for example: all candidates wishing to apply to the Northern, East Midlands and/or Yorkshire & Humber deaneries will submit applications to the 'Northern' UoA; all candidates successfully short-listed for interview will then attend interviews held at and managed by Northern Deanery, on behalf of all three deaneries within the cluster.
In the table below, deaneries have been grouped into the UoA 'clusters' to which candidates will apply. The deanery leading in each UoA has been placed at the top in bold.
Please see the rheumatology specialty page of this website for more information.
Non-participating deaneries/UoAs
There will be no ST3 post vacancies (neither NTN nor LAT) in rheumatology in this round in South West Peninsula Deanery.
