The recruitment of approximately 100 employees led to making this project business as usual. A workshop to recruit and find ‘local jobs for local people’ took place on 11 September 2024, with 61 people in attendance.
The workshops aim was to help people understand the processes of applying for a role within the NHS, and providing them with information on what they will need when applying, as well as offering mock interviews. Due to the success of the Local jobs for local people workshop, a series of interviews will be set up for potential candidates in October 2024.
A number of these candidates will then be recruited to bank in Administrator and Social Therapist roles.
