Dear colleagues,

Welcome to the CMT Recruitment website. This website contains everything you need to know to apply for CMT (CT1) posts by way of the online application system, including information for applicants, Deaneries and consultants, as well as details of the different stages of the recruitment process, with key dates and clear instructions.

A national helpdesk has been set up within the CMT Recruitment Office, offering email advice on the recruitment process during working hours. Our FAQs pages will be updated regularly to give the best possible advice on all aspects of the process, so please visit this before emailing the helpdesk.

While the 2009 recruitment process is nearing completion, it is still ongoing - hence the main focus for the information contained herein is still the 2009 process. Plans for 2010 are currently being developed, following analysis of this year’s recruitment project and consultation with stakeholders throughout the process, from trainees to recruiters to Deanery administrators. Information on next year’s CMT recruitment will be added to the website periodically, and we would advise those wishing to apply to CMT in 2010 to check this website regularly.

We believe that this new system is intuitive and applicant-friendly, improves consistency of recruitment, and is more transparent and streamlined than recruitment in previous years. We have received much positive feedback on its implementation so far this year, and will continue to work towards producing a recruitment process that is as fair and efficient as possible.

Yours sincerely,
Bill Burr
Medical Director
Joint Royal Colleges of Physicians Training Board
