Smile Hello

Hello everyone I'm Jude
I have just joined this site and am a complete novice, so please bear with me.
I have always wanted to be a midwife but have left it late in life to apply. having failed previous midwifery applications I applied to do a nursing degree which I completed last year. I have since been working with stroke , head injury and spinal injury patients.
I applied to Staford uni earlier this year for the 18 month midwifery course as a last ditch effort............... and I have just received a letter offering me an interview
I just hope i dont blow it again this time LOL
Jude

Hi Jude,

Welcome to the site, congratulations on passing your nursing degree, and wishing you lots of luck with your interview.

Check out the interview threads in the applications and interview section hopefully that will help you get an idea of how interviews may be structured etc.
