All F2 trainees in the East Midlands should have received a careers pack containing a selection of resources to support their career planning and decision making. This also includes a copy of a DVD 'Selection Centres for Specialty Training' which shows a wide range of assessment techniques used for selection. This is a really useful tool which can help you prepare for interviews or other selection processes. If you have not received a copy and would like one please e-mail charlene.binding@hee.nhs.uk in the careers team.
