Starting to think about your NHS Consultant Interview Prep? Join the waitlist for my Ace Your Consultant Interview Academy. I’ll let you know as soon as the Academy doors open https://info.medicalinterviewprep.com/waitlist?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=transistor&utm_content=t-ep44 One of the biggest fears going into a consultant interview is repeating yourself — especially if panel members have already interviewed you before. In this episode, Tessa and Becky tackle this head-on and make the case clearly: your strongest examples should come up more than once, and here's exactly how to do it without it feeling repetitive.They break down a fascinating Golden Example involving a lost amputated fingertip — and how the same incident can be used powerfully for both a duty of candour question and an MDT working question, as long as you know how to frame each angle correctly. They also dig into a tricky interview question of the week: "Tell me about the trust value that resonates most with you — and a time you couldn't meet it." Spoiler: it's a bit of a trap, and they share the safest way to navigate it.To close, their Tip and Trick of the Week unpacks how to mine your USPs for multiple different angles — so the same project can land a clinical governance question, a change management question, and more — without ever sounding like a broken record.Sign up for our free 5-day email course to give you ​a Crash Course To Ace Your Consultant Interview​: https://aceyourconsultantinterview.com/?utm_source=YTPod&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=1
