SHO Jobs in the NHS

SHO is still common search language for junior doctor work, even though many NHS adverts now use FY2, CT1, trust grade, resident doctor, junior clinical fellow, or locally employed doctor titles. SHO-equivalent posts usually involve supervised clinical work with increasing independence, rota participation, and portfolio-building opportunities.
