Please note that where the indicative posts numbers detail a minimum number of 0 and a maximum number of 1 this means that we do not have a confirmed vacancy to add to the recruitment system at the time of posting this information. In this situation we aim to add all vacancies to the live recruitment system by one week prior to the closing date for applications.
Sometimes vacancies do not arise until the recruitment round is underway, this is usually where we receive a resignation, this means that posts could be added in to the recruitment for all specialties with indicative numbers up to the time when recycling of offers closes. The reason for late additions is to ensure that we are able to fill as many training posts as possible rather than leaving posts vacant until the next recruitment round
