There are 3 main stages candidates must pass during the NHS recruitment process:
1) NHS online application
2) NHS aptitude tests
3) NHS interview
Each of these stages are described in detail below:
The first stage of the NHS application process requires you to complete a fairly basic online application form as well as a questionnaire used as a self-assessment tool to determine your motivation to work for the NHS.
This questionnaire is not reviewed by a staff member, but if you don’t answer yes to every single question you will be asked to ensure that you really want to work for the NHS before applying.
If this application is successful, you will receive an email inviting you to book your appointment on the PearsonVue platform, along with your username.
On your exam date, you will sit up to two tests provided by Talent Q - a provider of aptitude tests.
Recently, NHS changed its test provider to Talent Q.
Talent Q tests mainly aim at measuring test-takers’ verbal, numerical and logical reasoning capabilities. These assessments are timed, and one’s exam score will be compared against those of other candidates, so that only the most capable employee is hired.
For this reason, answering questions correctly and speedily may put an individual ahead of their competition.
The NHS Graduate Scheme exams include:
⦿ Verbal Reasoning Tests
⦿ Numerical Reasoning Tests
The Talent Q verbal reasoning test aims to assess one’s verbal skills in a multitude of areas. Passages are presented along with related questions, which test-takers must answer by; choosing which words fit in the gaps then ranking which follow-up sentences offer the most comprehensive summary of the provided written information.

Once you have passed the NHS online tests you will be invited to the come in for an NHS interview.
This is a competency-based interview and in it, you will have to provide examples of where you have demonstrated the core competencies mentioned in your job application.
In general, these competencies fall into the following categories:
✔ Compassion
✔ Commitment to a high-quality care service
✔ Everyone counts
✔ Improving lives
✔ Respect and dignity
✔ Working together for patients
When preparing answers for this interview, ensure that you include the relevant competencies in your answers.
This NHS interview is normally held by two consultants of the NHS and usually lasts half an hour.
