Nice idea well done app, but not very practical. Every time I apply for a job the trust sends me tons of papers and have to provide references, DBS and occupational clearance for every single job, i thought the different trusts can access my occupational clearance and DBS from my current employer. Unless I got it wrong i don't see benefit of this over any agency.

Brilliant app! Super clever piece of software, easy to use, it's been a true game changer. Doing locum has never been so easy and there are always plenty of shifts to apply to

Handy and easy to use app! Not allowed to do locums in other trusts as an F1 but Locum's Nest gives you the option of selecting hospitals so checking relevant available shifts is really straight forward.

Terrible IT support. Tried to use the app again after not having used for 1.5 years. I had forgotten password so clicked the forgotten password link and entered my email address. Nothing happened. Tried this for about 10 times over the course of 2 weeks, still nothing. Not in junk folder either. Contacted their support team several times and all they said was it should be in your email account. Well, it's not. Now they have stopped replying to my email and left the issue unresolved and me unpaid

Buggy. Keeps showing £0 on my timesheet rate and not letting me submit the form. This haa caused delays in payment. Technical support unhelpful when emailed about this issue.

Can not sync shifts with calendar. It is very difficult to navigate. Can not see if someone else applies to the same shift. Lack of desktop options. Really frustrating to work with.
