I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at NHS (Londres, Inglaterra) in Jan 2015
Interview
Sat 30minute technical competency exam followed by interview, panel of senior BMS, lead BMS, metabolic medicine registrar. The interview consisted mainly of scenario based questions and there were a few classic interview questions. Medical staff eased tension by asking what "my ideal weekend looks like". Overall the process was fine and fairy pleasant.

Interview
one stage, 2 members of team on interview panel. Quite informal/friendly. At one stage I felt as if they were attempting to find fault in my reasons for applying for the position (it was a change of career) and I was applying for a junior position when I had previously worked as a jnr manager.

I applied online. I interviewed at NHS (Redruth, England)
Interview
After filling out a lengthy questionnaire and being invited to interview, I was asked to complete a timed, written test. The scenario involved a person who was probably depressed, as he stayed in all day eating and playing computer games. Ideal life, right? Anyway, I filled out the answers to questions, such as, 'How do you think he feels?'.
I was then called into a small room where staff were sitting. They explained more about the role and asked questions like, 'Would you be able to be away from home for training?'
Later that day, I received a call back saying that I hadn't got the job. The interviewer was nasty about it. In all my time of having (numerous) interviews, I have never come across someone so vile. There was no feedback on the written test, either.
I suppose, given how nasty this person was, I had a lucky escape.
