The new HSC Application and Interview information on the NIPEC Careers website is packed with guidance tailored for nurses, midwives and healthcare support workers aiming for progression, promotion or continued professional development.

 

You’ll find easy‑to‑follow tips on writing applications, showcasing your experience, and presenting yourself with confidence during interviews. Whether you’re applying for a new post, seeking career progression, or working through a professional development framework, these resources will help you understand what employers want and how to demonstrate your knowledge and skills effectively.

 

Gary Cousins, Senior Professional Officer, NIPEC who has been working with applicants, human resources experts and interviewers to develop these resources, is encouraging colleagues to visit the website and commented:

Explore the resources today. Don’t wait, take the first step towards your next career move and start your journey now!”

 

While the guidance is centred on Health and Social Care recruitment processes, the principles can be applied across a wide range of roles within health and social care organisations
