While most medical secretary positions with the NHS do not have a formal entry requirement, the interviewer will likely still be interested in knowing if you have any formal education or training. An apprenticeship is another excellent alternative to start your career, so if you've completed a Modern Apprenticeship in Healthcare Support (non-clinical) or Business Administration, now is a great time to mention that. If you do not have any education or training, be honest and give a high-level overview of your relevant work experience that will transfer into this role with the NHS.
