ST1 IR Recruitment
Dear BSIR member,
You will hopefully be aware that prospective radiology trainees can preference a CR(I) post ie ST1 IR training post.
Some training schemes are not making this widely known.
I would like to strongly encourage you all to speak to your TPDs and HOS and encourage them to put forward IR posts for ST1s and publicise this fact.
Access to IR badged ST1 posts is key to recruitment into IR. We must ensure this scheme succeeds!
This is a link to the RCR guidance on the process. Please circulate to anyone who may be interested.
Some key excerpts are below.

From 2022, applicants to Clinical Radiology (CR) who have an early interest in Interventional Radiology (IR) will have the option to preference posts with an Interventional Radiology interest at the ST1 recruitment stage.
The ability to preference available posts opens following the interview process. At this point applicants will decide whether they wish to opt for the CR(I) pathway.
Thank you very much
Best wishes
Phil Haslam
President BSIR
