Internal Application for Vacant F2

Each year NWTFS may have a number of vacant F2 jobs.  NWTFS F1 trainees are given the chance to move to one of these jobs before the vacancies are returned to Trusts to recruit to.  The process is normally in spring and run along with the F2 Swap shop

The list of vacant F2 posts will be advertised to all eligible (full-time, non-academic and non-LAT) NWTFS F1 trainees.  Those who are interested will email the jobs ranked in their order of preference, to the School if they wish to apply for one of the jobs. Jobs will be allocated according to FPAS scores. The Foundation School will notify approval or non-approval via email.

Information about the internal application for Vacant F2 posts along with the F2 swap shop will be only be posted on Synapse and not emailed direct to F1 doctors. If you have forgotten your Synapse password use the link on the login page to obtain a reset. Please read the following Internal Application for Vacant F2 guidance.

Once the swap shop and application for vacant F2 process is finished there will be no more swapping or moving allowed.  F2 posts that become vacant as a result of this process or subsequently will be returned to the Trust and will be recruited to as an F2 Locum Appointment for Training (LAT). If trainees wish to apply for these jobs they would need to resign from the Foundation School (with appropriate notice) and apply for the LAT in open competition.
