While most NHS Band 6 radiographer positions will have you performing radiographic examinations and providing direct patient care as your primary job duties, you may be required to lead a team of radiographers in the absence of senior staff. Describe your experience and comfort level leading a team in the workplace setting. The interviewers want to hear that you are comfortable leading a team and have the strong leadership and communication skills they seek.

"I have led teams many times as a radiographer over the past two years. Last month, I was asked to lead a shift when the senior staff radiographer was unexpectedly away due to a family emergency. I took charge for four days, and the experience was quite positive. The biggest success factor was that I tried to emulate her leadership style and thought back to what she would do when I wasn't sure what to do. When the senior staff officer returned, she was pleased with how I led the team and gave me positive feedback from other team members. This experience prepared me for a leadership role, and I am excited to take on a team lead role again."
