Sorry to get you worried just thought you'd better be aware of how bad it is. I know of qualified physio's who have been working on a voluntary basis as well as plenty who are working as assistants. It is really difficult to get your first job in the NHS.

This is a petition complaining of the lack of jobs.

If you look at the number of names you will see how big a problem it is.

I don't intend to scare you just trying to show you the facts.
