Ace Your Consultant Interview podcast, Tessa and Becky explain how using a blank piece of paper and pen can help you pause, gather your thoughts, and keep your answers focused from start to finish.
They also discuss reasonable adjustments for neurodivergent doctors, including how to think about what would actually help you perform at your best in the interview. From asking for written questions to needing a quieter space before the interview, this episode encourages candidates to be clear about what they need and not let stigma hold them back from requesting support.
Finally, Tessa and Becky break down what makes a strong duty of candour example and how to answer difficult questions about trust values. If you are preparing for a consultant interview and want to sound calm, structured, thoughtful, and ready for senior level practice, this episode will help you approach your preparation with more clarity and confidence.
