1. When you apply, you will answer selection questions to help us get a picture of you and thus make the selection process easier.
2. Once you have applied, you will complete a personality analysis and a problem-solving test, which you can do from home.
3. The clinics interested in proceeding with your application will contact you to schedule an interview.
4. At the end of our recruitment process, we will take references. If you have worked with us before, we will take references from your former manager.

We are, of course, very happy that you want to work with us. However, we unfortunately cannot take everyone further in the process, as we have a limited recruitment need. We will keep you updated via email.
