The war for talent in the UK is showing no signs of slowing down - and the NHS certainly isn’t immune to it. As NHS Trusts continue to battle it out for the top talent, the constant threat posed by private sector employers means the NHS needs to do more to have a competitive edge.
But how can you make your NHS Trust stand out against the private sector competitors in the fight to secure the best talent?
That is exactly what we’re going to explore in this guide. We understand that the NHS recruitment process is vital to the success of your Trust. With recruitment going through stage times, on the back of the pandemic, now more than ever, the process needs to be right.
