Abstract
In 2021, Solent NHS Trust advertised for a fully remote consultant psychiatrist to meet increasing clinical demand. This pilot scheme was evaluated to determine its success. The job applications underwent content analysis, recruitment and support staff were interviewed, and in-depth rolling interviews were conducted with the three now-employed virtual psychiatrists. We have gained an objective understanding of this new and innovative way of working and, overall, shown that fully remote working in the National Health Service (NHS) is feasible. The findings were used to create a step-by-step guide for the remote hiring process, which outlines the necessary steps for conducting it in a safe, swift and successful way. This guide could help other NHS organisations to advertise, recruit and manage fully remote employees.
