In this episode of the Ace Your Consultant Interview podcast, Tessa and Becky tackle three areas that commonly derail otherwise strong candidates: GMC documents, weakness questions, and CQC reports.

Next, they pull apart a real “biggest weakness” example – clinics always running over time – and show how to reshape a risky answer into a specific, contained story with clear impact and practical strategies that demonstrate insight rather than poor time management. They also unpack an unusual question recently asked at consultant interview about “types of consultations you find difficult”, using it to show how to demonstrate vulnerability, learning, and true consultant-level, system-focused thinking when you are facing a wildcard question.​

They finish with a concrete tip on how to approach CQC reports: what to read, what to ignore, how to spot the issues that are likely to appear in your panel’s questions, and how to weave the report into your answers so it is obvious you have done your homework without sounding rehearsed.
If you feel overwhelmed by all the things you “should” be reading before interview, this episode will help you focus on the few documents and examples that actually move the needle.
