NHS Education for Scotland
A skilled and sustainable workforce for a healthier Scotland
This is a Scottish Government initiative to support transition into employment and to maximise the opportunity to build on the clinical experience gained by nurses and midwives during their pre-registration programme.
The One Year Job Guarantee scheme is available to newly qualified nurses and midwives to help consolidate and develop their clinical experience. The scheme involves part-time (22.5 hours per week), employment in clinical practice within Scotland. Placements may include working within community nursing, public health nursing and independent care home settings. The offer is a fixed term for one year (or a proportion of that year) and supports completion of Flying Start NHS®.
All applicants to the Scheme will be in the process of seeking employment and must demonstrate evidence of applying for at least 3 posts. Nursing applicants must demonstrate evidence of applying for posts which must include posts within the independent sector including care homes.
Applicants have the opportunity to identify a preference for place of employment, but as the OYJG is a national initiative there is no guarantee of a position locally. Once allocated through the scheme, applicants will undergo recruitment processes within the placement.
