What to Do When Reference Requests Get Awkward

Description

This episode of the Ace Your Consultant Interview Podcast brings clarity to some of the most awkward or misunderstood elements of NHS consultant interviews. Tessa and Becky open with advice for those nervously navigating references when applying for a new post - offering practical, honest ways to approach the conversation with your current employer. They unpack what makes for a great “duty of candour” example. When facing emotionally charged questions like “Tell me about your worst day,” they guide you on showing vulnerability without oversharing. They also break down how to choose a conflict-resolution story that demonstrates judgement and senior-level thinking, steering clear of unsafe answers that could raise red flags.Sign up for our free 5-day email course to give you ​a Crash Course To Ace Your Consultant Interview​: https://aceyourconsultantinterview.com/
