Abstract
In 2007 a new method of selection for specialist training in the UK was introduced. Traditional forms of application and interview were abandoned in favour of an online application system and a structured interview process. Due to widely reported shortcomings the online application system has since been abandoned. The interview process also underwent modification during the first and second round of applications, specifically to incorporate the consideration of CVs at interview in addition to trainee portfolios. Nevertheless, the basic structured interview format promises to become the norm for the selection of surgical trainees throughout the country, potentially for many years to come.
