Proficient use of nutritional analysis programmes would be a distinct advantage. Candidates must have excellent communication and presentation skills.

And finally! I know the high level to which all RD’s are trained so that is not what I will be assessing! Make your cover letter stand out! One of the most important criteria for the person I will choose to join Cork Nutrition will be personality! Good luck!
