"I want to work for the NHS after discovering the opportunities you offer your team members. I have a friend working for the NHS who described how her managers encouraged her to attend the Leadership Academy offered in-house. After attending the academy, her knowledge and skills were greatly enhanced, and she was able to advance her career within the NHS very quickly. I am also interested in professional development and growth and know the NHS would support me with my goals if offered the position. I want to finish my career with one organization, and I know the NHS is where I want to be."
