In person interview
Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso NHS (Cardiff, Galles) nel mese di giu 2025
Colloquio
When I first arrived, everyone was super friendly and nice. I was nervous at first but the atmosphere and people really helped. They were super friendly and the interview was not hard. After the interview I asked for a laboratory tour, which they gave in detail. They told me tomorrow morning I would find out if I got the job by phone call, and got it.
