Reviews for How to Prepare for Interviews and Develop your Career: As a nurse or midwife

Highly recommend this book! 'The book is packed with tips and it is obvious the author knows what she is talking about as she shares lots of advice to help the reader prepare future interview questions and personal statements. The two personal statement templates were very helpful for me and can be tweaked to support applications. The best bit for me is that the book inspires and makes me feel I can go on and influence future practice and do the best I can at interview.' Amazon 5-star review Excellent text for the student nurse in the transition period to becoming a newly registered nurse 'An excellent, succinct, easy to read and digest text for the students in Year 3 of the BSC Hons Nursing programme transitioning to becoming a newly qualified/registered nurse in the UK.'
