England
The application process
for core training level 1 (CT1) jobs in England is centralised and
managed by the Royal College of Psychiatrists. For full guidelines
for applicants see the information on the College recruitment
pages.
Registration and application forms can also be
found online during the recruitment process.
There is a single
application form for all regions/deaneries in England. All
applications are reviewed by the North West Deanery, which
longlists the applicants. The longlist is then sent to the
candidate’s first- and second-choice deanery. The deaneries create
a shortlist of candidates to interview. Interviews take place
during February and March and offers are subsequently made. There
is also a clearing process whereby any vacancies which remain
unfilled will be offered to those candidates considered suitable
for CT1 training at interview but not previously offered a training
post.
