Applications are usually open in January with shortlisting in May. Interviews are held in June for positions in the subsequent year.
About the Town Hall session
Do I need to be a current trainee to attend?
The session is open to anyone considering a paediatric anaesthesia fellowship, and is pitched towards current trainees applying for fellowship and recently qualified specialists.
How are the breakout rooms organised?
You will be randomly allocated to a small group with one or more panel members. The groups are designed to be informal and conversational — there is no set agenda for the breakout time and you are encouraged to ask whatever is on your mind.
