Haematology Competition Ratios and Shortlist Cut-off

We have compiled these figures using data directly from the PHST recruitment website.
The table shows how the applicant number for your Speciality has changed over the last 8 years and crucially an idea of your competition ratio.
The graph shows the shortlist score distribution for all applying in Rd 1 last year.
We have also tried to work out an approximate shortlist score cut-off based on the number of people who had an interview.
These numbers are derived from estimates and should just be a guide.

Happy students!

Hear from last year’s interview course batch! We look forward to working with you.

Just to let you know I got full marks in my interview and ranked third nationally.

[…] is my top choice and […] so I’ll get a number there.

I wanted to thank you both again for the interview course […]. It made a huge difference and I greatly appreciate it

Many thanks for the comprehensive interview course and has gone a long way in helping me secure a NTN. It is much appreciated

2021 Course Attendee

I am pleased to share with you that I have been successful in securing an NTN in South East Midlands , which was my first preference region.

I must say that the interview mock course you guys organised was very helpful for preparation and better understanding of the structure of the interview.

You guys are doing a fantastic job in polishing interview skills and giving the framework of how to answer each section, I would definitely recommend this interview course to my colleagues and it is worth every penny. Keep up the impressive work.

I am so incredibly thankful for all the invaluable help. I didn’t get a London job last year and after applying the tips you guys told us, especially for the clinical station I got full marks across all stations and ranked 2nd in the country! Coming to NW Thames!
