Lectures
The theory part will include:
- Interview practicalities – how to prepare, what to expect from the panel, and the role of interview ‘pre-meets’
- Answer structure – how to deliver clear, focused, and effective responses
- Hot topics in RCEM and the NHS – including the structure of the NHS, the 10-Year Health Plan, and the Urgent & Emergency Care (UEC) Recovery Plan
Interactive interview practice
Interactive interview practice will take place in small groups of four, covering five key themes:
- Personal motivation and skills
- Teamwork
- Leadership and leading change
- Governance and patient safety
- Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (ED&I) and health equity
Each participant will have the opportunity to answer at least one question in each of these topic areas, observe peers, and receive constructive feedback.
Who will be teaching
The course is led by Dr Hannah Baird, a newly appointed Emergency Medicine Consultant in the North West. Despite being early in her consultant career, she has extensive interview experience, having successfully secured several competitive fellowships during her training, including the National Medical Director’s Fellowship Scheme, a regional Education Fellowship, an Improvement Science Fellowship, and the role of Chief Registrar. She currently also works part-time at NHS England as a Senior Clinical Fellow in the Health Inequalities Team, giving her unique insight into NHS policy.
Hannah will be joined by other NHS Consultants with direct knowledge of the interview process.
