In this episode of the Ace Your Consultant Interview podcast, Tessa Davis and Becky Platt break down the real-world differences between substantive and locum NHS consultant interviews.

They discuss:

• How substantive panels set a standardised, formal environment - while locum interviews may feel ad hoc and unpredictable

• Why relying on single patient stories can hold your interview answers back, and how using team or project examples showcases your readiness for a consultant role

• Practical advice for handling questions about equity and MDT working, including examples that go beyond clinical competence to show system-scale impact

• The number one time-management tip for busy clinicians: why prepping early - even with small actions - makes a massive difference

Listen for sparing, actionable advice grounded in daily NHS realities, designed for intelligent, ambitious doctors at the pivotal consultant interview stage.
