Professional experience

How do I enter my professional experience?

You’ll need to give full details of all the posts you’ve held since your primary medical qualification, starting with the most recent and working backwards. If you’ve worked overseas, please don’t change your overseas post title to match to a UK title – instead, tell us the actual title you held. Examples of post titles include:

  • SHO
  • Registrar
  • Staff Grade
  • District Medical Officer
  • Clinical Tutor
  • Assistant Professor and Resident.

Please also give details of any periods longer than one month when you weren’t practising medicine. This could include:

  • alternative employment
  • clinical attachments
  • vacation
  • study leave
  • maternity leave
  • career breaks
  • unemployment.

You must also give a brief explanation for each period.
