This fantastic course and knowledge bank has been successfully run by Ash Kalraiya and Sam Nahas every year since 2015. They both achieved their first choice jobs after securing the number 1 ST3 interview rank in the country and a top 25 spot between them. Ash has since left medicine to pursue a very successful career with his own company and Sam is a Trauma & Orthopaedic consultant in Reading.

In 2021, they were joined by Nadia Pakroo and Max Little – both of whom attended the course before their interviews and went on to achieve 5th and top 30 ranks between them. This landed them their first choice jobs and gave them the desire to help others as Sam and Ash had helped them. They are both now registrars on the North West Thames (Imperial) training programme.

In 2026, Harry Hodgson joined the faculty. He started ST3 on the same programme in 2024 and is now an ST5 registrar at Imperial College Healthcare.

We have all been motivated by seeing great candidates get their jobs using our techniques and strategies. Our goal is to give you a comprehensive preparation for the whole process of application and interview. We will leave no stone unturned in helping you to prepare!
