As an international histopathologist, getting your CV right is crucial to securing a great role in the UK.
For any doctor, regardless of your specialty, qualifications, or previous experience, your CV is the first chance you get to make a good impression to a potential NHS employer. Here we take a look at the NHS CV format for pathologists that are new to the NHS, and are trying to secure their first opportunity in the UK. We will cover the following topics:
Keeping your CV up to date
Structure and content
A Histopathology CV template
Responding to the job description
Style and format
Keeping your Histopathology CV up to date
First things first, remember your CV is the story of your career, so you should regularly update and review your CV, allowing yourself the best opportunity of securing an interview. Have your most recent experience at the top, and descending in chronological order.
Structure and content of your Histopathology CV
CVs come in all shapes and sizes, and there is no agreed approach to how long they should be. However, we are finding that there is a trend towards shorter, more concise versions. So long as they are well structured, then the length doesn’t really matter. Being concise doesn’t mean that you can’t include everything you need, just present it in a more succinct way and remember that quality is better than quantity. Our advice is to keep your CV to around two - four pages of A4, though the British Medical Journal advise anything up to eight pages is ok.
Remember, your CV is generally the first point of contact you will have with a Histopathology Service Director or Consultant, so the structure of your CV should establish a favourable image of your professionalism and approach to your work in the histopathology. It is important to consider structuring your CV for GMC registration, not only does this mean that you don’t need to create several CV’s, but also means that you will be working to a recognised structure.
If you would like a GMC template for a CV just mention this to our team at info@imgconnect.co.uk or book your CV building call with Marcus Anderson, Histopathology Specialist, via this Calendly Link.

Experienced overseas Emergency Medicine trust doctors, or consultants who have completed specialist training, can apply for specialty doctor posts in the NHS with CESR programmes included in the job plan.
So, if you are committed, motivated and enthusiastic in embracing the CESR application once in the UK, this could be the best route towards gaining entry to the specialist register. Many trusts are piloting such projects, which will support you via a CESR programme tailored to your needs.
Specialist Register for Emergency Medicine
All consultants (other than a locum consultant appointments) must be on the specialist register of the General Medical Council (GMC). To be eligible to apply for specialist registration with the GMC, doctors must have successfully completed a GMC-approved training programme leading to CCT, or applied for a certificate confirming Eligibility for Specialist Registration (CESR).
Doctors who have not completed a full GMC-approved training programme and wish to have their training, qualifications and experience assessed for eligibility for entry onto the specialist register must make an application under The General and Specialist Medical Practice Order for a CESR.
Working with IMG Connect & our NHS Clients
Working with our NHS clients, we are offering CESR Specialty doctor roles, with the opportunity of being mentored by CESR Consultants to guide you in your application toward CESR and to participate in a job plan that is tailored to your needs.
Such CESR programmes are locally developed and targeted for both International Doctors coming to work in the NHS and non-trainees wanting to apply for a CESR in Emergency Medicine.
As an Emergency Medicine doctor your CESR programme will include dedicated one-to-one mentoring and a course mapped on the GMC domains for successful completion of your application.
Benefits of the CESR programme
Such Specialty doctor vacancies will give you the benefit of support on your journey to achieving consultant status, give you the opportunity to adapt to working in the NHS, and help you to further your career at the most senior level.
Furthermore, job plans will typically provide you with a dedicated mentor for CESR applicants by Emergency Medicine CESR Consultants who will take you through the application process.
In some circumstances practical experience will be delivered via simulation and workshops where you are at the centre of the learning experience.
Most NHS trusts have experienced Emergency Medicine CESR consultants who will be available to give you support, mentorship and coaching.
The post are intended to provide the emergency medicine clinician with the support and training required to successfully complete all aspects of the CESR process and attain specialist registration, allowing you to take a substantive emergency medicine post and work as a consultant in the NHS.

Are you an overseas psychiatrist taking the postgraduate route to GMC registration? Are you just beginning your journey through the MRCPsych exams?
Today, we’re back with Dr Kevin Li, who will be sharing some top tips on the MRCPsych Paper A and Paper B for overseas MRCPsych A & B aspirants. Kevin is a brilliant psychiatry specialty doctor who relocated to the UK from Hong Kong, having passed the MRCPsych and received full GMC registration with license to practice.
1. Start with the Royal College website
This is the best place to begin as it has key information including the syllabus - on which the exam is based, helping to guide the course of your preparation and revision.
2. Don’t use resources that are more than 3 years old – 5 years maximum
The curriculum and syllabus for Specialty Training in Psychiatry are updated regularly, so it’s best to find and use resources that are as up-to-date as possible.
3. Don’t combine study for Paper A and Paper B
Focus on each paper as an individual element – they each have different requirements, including what sections of the syllabus they are targeting and how much experience you must have before sitting the exam.
4. Divide your time according to the marks weighting of the sections
For example, general adult and critical review have the most marks in the exam, with 20% and 33.5% respectively, so you should prioritise these in your revision, then try to spend a proportionate amount of time on each section based on the marks it holds.
5. Perfect what you know
If there are any areas you are experienced or confident in, try to perfect these in order to gain the most marks possible in what you find to be the least challenging areas. These areas may also be easier to revise if they are better aligned with your training and practice to date.
6. Which exam should you sit first? It depends
If you want to pass the exams as quickly as possible, it makes sense to apply for the nearest upcoming diet of whichever exam comes first.
Knowledge wise Paper B has more sections and requires a lot more time and practice, particularly for critical review calculations. This combined with the Royal College’s advice of having 12 months’ experience in psychiatry before sitting the exam means that for most people, sitting Paper A first is the best choice.
7. Use diagrams for more challenging topics
Find or better still, create diagrams to better illustrate and explain the mor difficult to understand topics. Especially where you have little experience of a topic, it can be helpful to represent it visually.
8. Keep difficult topics fresh in your mind
If you need longer than 3 months to prepare for either exam, either leave the more difficult topics to the end of your revision or begin with them and be sure to revisit them at the end. You may not retain this information long-term, so it’s important to have it as fresh in your mind as possible when coming up to the exam.
9. Take time off before the exam for intense study
If you can, try to put some time aside in the week(s) coming up to the exam to for a final push of intense study before the exam.
10. Practice is key
Books are great resources for increasing your overall psychiatry knowledge, however they are not necessarily the best resources for the Paper A and Paper B exams. Question banks and past papers such as SPMM are very useful in preparing for the MRCPsych Paper A & B.

The postgraduate route to GMC registration, whilst not the fastest, can be the most rewarding in the long run. The MRCPsych exams are the central components of psychiatry training in the UK, and as an international psychiatrist, this is the route that allows you to most closely align your qualifications with the requirements of more senior jobs in the NHS.
Are you an overseas histopathologist looking to sit the FRCPath exams?
Today we’re bringing you a guide on how to prepare for the FRCPath Histopathology Part 1 exam from Dr Maria, clinical fellow in cellular pathology in London. Maria passed the FRCPath Part 1 exam in March 2021 and is sharing her top tips for FRCPath aspirants, including study planning, revision materials and what you should know about the Part 1 exam.
1. Create a plan and schedule for your study (this is most important!)
I started studying around 3 months before the exam, spending 2-3 hours per day on weekdays and around 5-7 hours on study at the weekend.
REMINDER: This all depends on how much you know already. You cannot focus constantly for hours, so you should schedule your studying time around the way that you know you work best.
Leading up to the exam
Try to keep at least 2 weeks free prior to the exam to re-revise problematic topics and genetics.
The day before exam
Be kind to yourself. Have a good meal, try to relax if you can and avoid stressing too much. Go to bed early and have a good, long sleep.
2. Revision materials
I had been revising using my old notes, where I studied from these books (the best for trainees in my opinion):
Foundation in Diagnostic Pathology series
Dermatopathology
Pulmonary Pathology
Hematopathology
Head and Neck Pathology
Gynecologic Pathology
Bone and Soft Tissue Pathology
Cell and Tissue Based Molecular Pathology
Pulmonary Pathology
Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology
Genitourinary Pathology
Breast Pathology
Neuropathology
Gastrointestinal and Liver Pathology
Diagnostic Pathology series
Diagnostic Pathology: Head and Neck
Diagnostic Pathology: Genitourinary
Diagnostic Pathology: Spleen
Diagnostic Pathology: Thoracic
Diagnostic Pathology: Neuropathology
Diagnostic Pathology: Hepatobiliary and Pancreas
Diagnostic Pathology: Nonneoplastic Dermatopathology
Diagnostic Pathology: Neoplastic Dermatopathology
Diagnostic Pathology: Bone
Diagnostic Pathology: Breast
Diagnostic Pathology: Familial Cancer Syndromes
Diagnostic Pathology: Molecular Oncology
Diagnostic Pathology: Infectious Diseases
Diagnostic Pathology: Gastrointestinal
Diagnostic Pathology: Kidney Diseases
Diagnostic Pathology: Placenta
Diagnostic Pathology: Gynaecological
Diagnostic Pathology: Transplant Pathology
Diagnostic Pathology: Cardiovascular
Diagnostic Pathology: Intraoperative Consultation
Diagnostic Pathology: Cytopathology
Diagnostic Pathology: Paediatric Neoplasms
Diagnostic Pathology: Endocrine
Diagnostic Pathology: Normal Histology
Diagnostic Pathology: Lymph Nodes and Extra-nodal Lymphomas
Diagnostic Pathology: Blood and Bone Marrow
Diagnostic Pathology: Vascular
Diagnostic Pathology: Hospital Autopsy
There are so many books, and it would be too expensive to purchase them all, so stick to what you've got in your department or can borrow from friends or colleagues.
The Pathology Outlines website is also excellent for quick review and genetics! There are also MCQs.
Some trainees study from the Robbins Pathology books, however, in my opinion, this book alone is not enough for the Part 1 exam.
For the MCQs, I used the following resources:
Practical Applications in Histopathology, Cytopathology and Autopsy: an MCQ/ EMQ Resource – Limci Gupta, Jayson Wang, Val Thomas
Anatomic Pathology Board Review – Jay H. Lefkowitch
Robbins Review of Pathology - Edward Klatt, Vinay Kumar
Sternberg's Diagnostic Surgical Pathology Review – Pier Luigi Di Patre, Darryl Carter
Various past papers I found within my network
If you have access to old presentations from FRCPath Part 1 courses, I’d suggest having a look at them. It’s a good idea to use them to review and revise a topic, followed by some MCQs on that topic.

This is a guide to the revision schedule I used for my FRCPath preparation. I actually started studying in December, so I had less time to fit this all in, but I was able to revise faster to cover everything.
3. FRCPath Part 1 Exam
The questions in the FRCPath Part 1 exam are usually quite straightforward, so you either know the answer or you don't, nothing misleading or tricky.
Some key topics you’ll need to know for the exam:
Genetics and the mutation of tumours (and yes...you'll need to learn each tumour that has any typical mutation and its name)
Immunohistochemistry of lesions
Microscopic pictures (all the micro images I had in the test depicted typical morphology)
Genetic syndromes, the mutations behind them and what lesions are most common
Datasets - they are quite wordy, so focus only on pTN, and the stage of each organ system
Audit
Parts of a microscope
There were some questions from general pathology (necrosis, inflammation, etc.), but I’d say most of the questions were from GI, breast, gynae, skin, soft tissue and kidney.
However, you'll have at least a few questions from each of the other organ systems, so it's better to study everything rather than focus on the most common ones only.
#IMG Tips
Prepare early – try to start your preparation early to give yourself enough time to cover all the relevant sections on the Royal College curriculum.
Find the right materials to support your study – it's good to use a combination of resources for your study to reinforce existing knowledge and benchmark your progress. Try to find the right materials for you as early as possible to hit the ground running with your revision.
Familiarise yourself with the Royal College curriculum – we cannot stress this enough! All countries have different training programmes, so being well versed in what the RCPath will be looking for is key.
Join the IMG Histopathologists community – as well as support on Royal College exams, our online community of international pathologists and dedicated pathology recruiters offers guidance on other aspects of working in the UK, including finding NHS posts and CESR.

Are you an overseas pathologist preparing for FRCPath Histopathology Part 2 exam?
Overseas doctors often wonder how to prepare for the FRCPath Part 2 examination, especially when so much content and advice online appears geared towards UK applicants and trainee. So what study courses, resources and support is available to an overseas histopathologists looking to take the test?
Here we have compiled some of our advice and resources available to help you prepare for the exam, whilst we also address some of the changes in availability of test centres and upcoming exams as a result of COVID-19 pandemic.
What is FRCPath Part 2?
First a quick reminder of what the FRCPath Histopathology Part 2 is. The Part 2 exam consists of six components which are taken over two days. Each component comprises a different number of cases provided in 20-minute stations or slots. The components include both written and face-to-face elements with the examiner where candidates should demonstrate and discuss both clinical & practical knowledge as well as complex diagnoses and special techniques. This is done through elements of interpreting and writing reports, interpretation and OSPE. If you want to have a more detailed overview of the FRCPath exam then take a look through the article published in our online IMG Library here, or take a look through the Royay College of Pathologists website here.
So how do I get started with my preparation?
Starting is often the hardest thing to do, and as there are many resources available online, it's hard to tell where the best place is to start. After discussing this with consultants who've passed (both UK trainees and IMGs), most recommended starting with the Royal College, who have posted some useful resources on their website to aid in your preparation.
Curriculum: The exam questions are based on the Curriculum for Specialist Training in Histopathology. As a first step, we recommend becoming familiar with this curriculum as early as possible to reinforce your knowledge and to provide a solid foundation for your study plan. Knowing the curriculum is key - as this is what you will be tested on.
Regulations and guidelines: Ensure you have read both the general regulations and guidelines and the specialty specific regulations and guidelines.
Social Media study groups: There are many social media study groups available across various platforms. These include Telegram, Facebook, WhatsApp and to a lesser extent LinkedIn. IMG Connect hosts study groups for FRCPath Part 1 and 2 exams - these are forums that bring together international doctors from all over the world into one constructive, communicative and moderated space where you can share exam tips, stories and woes, and the opportunity to buddy-up with similar colleagues looking to pass the test.
If you think you would be interested in joining either the IMG Connect FRCPath 1 or Part 2 Study groups, please email info@imgconnect.co.uk to speak to the histopathology specialist and request your admission.
Online Courses for FRCPath Histopathology: There are a few online courses which provide preparation, from full mock exams to individual component courses. We've spoken with some IMGs to understand which courses they favoured, and below we have summarised a few of these. With all courses, it is advised that you register your interest as early as possible as they are in high demand.
