To assess the current perceptions, motivations and expectations of trainers and vocational dental practitioners (VDPs) of vocational training (VT) interviews.
Questionnaire based study.
General practice study carried out in 1996.
Undergraduates from three London dental schools and vocational trainers from south-east England.
Perceptions, motivation and experiences were assessed by a questionnaire.
111 questionnaires were posted to trainers with 72 (65%) returned. 108 (70%) were returned from the dental schools after 155 were posted. Graduates employed in hospital training posts, armed forces and community dentistry were eliminated from the results. Most trainers (74%) had previous experience of VT and 89% of trainers thought that a CV was important for their choice of VDPs. However, only 11% of trainers sought references before interviewing. 34% of VDPs preferred jobs close to their dental school but 75% considered location to be vital to their choice. 67% of VDPs made 10 or more applications and 57% visited 10 or more practices for interviews. 78% of VDPs considered that either genderism or racism was likely to or possibly influenced the trainers choice. However, the converse was not true, 62% of trainers considered it unlikely that the VDPs were influenced by their gender or race.
Trainers and VDPs have different perceptions concerning the protocol of interviews for VT.
评估培训师和牙科职业从业者（VDPs）对职业培训（VT）面试的当前认知、动机和期望。
基于问卷的研究。
1996年开展的全科医学研究。
来自三所伦敦牙科学院的本科生以及英格兰东南部的职业培训师。
通过问卷评估认知、动机和经历。
向培训师发放了111份问卷，回收72份（65%）。向牙科学院发放155份问卷后，回收108份（70%）。结果中剔除了受雇于医院培训岗位、武装部队和社区牙科的毕业生。大多数培训师（74%）有VT的既往经验，89%的培训师认为简历对他们选择VDPs很重要。然而，只有11%的培训师在面试前寻求推荐信。34%的VDPs更喜欢靠近其牙科学院的工作，但75%的人认为工作地点对他们的选择至关重要。67%的VDPs申请了10份或更多工作，57%的人走访了10家或更多机构进行面试。78%的VDPs认为性别歧视或种族主义可能或有可能影响培训师的选择。然而，反之则不然，62%的培训师认为VDPs不太可能受到其性别或种族的影响。
培训师和VDPs对VT面试流程的认知存在差异。
