However, we are seeing an increasing over-reliance of AI tools, which can negatively affect your application as it reduces a candidates individuality, and makes it difficult for us to gain a clear and authentic understanding of your experience, skills, and in turn your suitability for the role. All submissions must be truthful and if you do use AI, it should only be used to enhance your application and not create your supporting statement in its entirety. Your supporting statement should be in your own words and must accurately reflect your personal experience and achievements. Where we have concerns that AI has been used to generate content that misrepresents your experience and suitability for the role, we may withdraw your application. As part of our vision to have a skilled, diverse and caring workforce, Dorset HealthCare offers support for people getting into work. We offer an employability service to support individuals with application writing, interview skills and other employment support. If you would like or know of anyone who would value this support, please do contact [email protected] Please note that applications from candidates who require Skilled Worker visa sponsorship to work in the UK are unfortunately not eligible for this position. Applicants for this post must be fully qualified, registered with the NMC and hold a valid PIN. Applicants should be able to demonstrate the requisite experience and skills to work within a community mental health team through their employment history. Unfortunately, we are unable to consider applications from current students who are awaiting NMC registration or a PIN.
