Whether you are applying to become a nurse, a midwife, a healthcare assistant, a hospital porter, an administrative assistant or a radiographer, all of the following tips will be useful in helping you prepare!

TIP #3 – Perhaps the biggest tip we can give you is to make sure you read and study both the job description and the person specification for your chosen hospital job role.
