I think you should know why you want to go to work at the Bank of England rather than go to uni. Main tip - don't be nervous :smile:

good luck !)
Tell me how was the interview

Hi, I'm applying for this years initial entry too. Have you got through to the interview stage?

I'm a tad nervous about the group exercise and what questions may crop up in the actual interview.

Any one got any ideas on how to effectively prep for this?

:smile:

Hi! did you have the interview today? how did it go? how was the group exercise?

Hi!

anyone who's applied to the Bank of England's initial entry scheme this year: I know the first stage is answering questions and then if successful, numerical and data checking tests i'm ok with that but i've read somewhere (probably here :tongue:

) the assessment day involves group exercise and the interview? any tips for this please and what was the group exercise based on and what kind of questions did you get asked in the interview? I can't find much on other sites so please your help will be appreciated. Thank you :smile:
