ST1 Interview Course
Applying to ST1 in today's climate can be so stressful!
Don't worry, Excel Medical has had great success with paediatric candidates across all levels from ST1 to consultancy. We understand the process. We won't teach you a script so you sound generic. Instead, we teach you how to highlight yourself, answer the question they are asking and importantly stand out.
This one day course will cover ALL FOUR stations of the interview:
​​
- Communication
- Career Motivation
- Clinical Reasoning
- Reflective Practice
Group sizes are kept small to ensure that we focus on YOU throughout the day.
The course is led by Dr Umar Mahmood (Paediatric Cardiology Consultant) and also facilitated by consultants and senior registrar's

"I have some crazy news...I got my top choice AND 97% in my interview" - 2024 Candidate
​
Umar's style of coaching brings out the confident side of the candidates which I believe is essential to be successful in the interview. He really empowers the candidates to feel they will be successful. His enthusiasm for wanting you to succeed really spurs you on to practice and improve your answers in the run up to the interview and then to conduct yourself the very best way that you can during the actual interview.
Umar always has suggestions for ways you can improve the delivery of your answers. His supportive manner is so welcomed during such a stressful period. Many many thanks Umar.
