    I have an interview on the same day in London, I kind of have a business background...Anyone else going?
    I've got one at 12.15, but like others, not sure if I'm going- haven't got a business background, and I'll have to give up a biology trip (which I think I HAVE to go to for an assessed practical ) and open days, and summer and preparation for uni application and stuff :/

    Well I applied for the Apprentice, and I got an interview for the 31st March. I have never had any business experience, except from raising £500 with some two other friends by baking cakes. I'm only doing my GCSE's at the moment and have not taken business studies or economics. Do you think it would be appropriate to go to the interview/audition or not?:confused:
    Yeah I'm in the same position as you really.. No business experience.. What are you going to wear?

    I've got my interview on the 31st of March as well, does anyone wanna meet up for lunch or something? I'm not too keen on going to London just to (probably) get rejected after a 10 minute deal!

    My brother went last year and almost got in, he said everyone was basically in suits and that the questions put you on the spot a lot, so quick thinking is the key

    You haven't got a suit? I would suggest investing in one. What would you wear otherwise? Don't think there is much significance really 'cause of the date of ours, at least I have the weekend to prepare unlike some people.

    Yes but I'm in year 12- don't worry you don't need to stress about it yet I'm august born so I'm one of the youngest and couldn't apply last year- you have an advantage having a really long holiday after your exams are over, I have to go back to school so I'll miss 4 weeks if I do someone get on it

    Me! I'm coming down all the way from Manchester. I still can't decide whether to go. I doubt I'm going to get very far as I have no business experience outside of school, but my friends keep urging me on for the experience

    This is the same as me, I have little buisness experience but I'm going merely for the experience and it'll be a good ocnfidence booster for me

    I don't have much experience of business either, but everyone has to start somewhere. I've looked into business opportunities but haven't persued any yet. I'm surprised you didn't get Manchester as your audition venue. Luckily for me I have family in London so won't have to book a hotel or anything. Well anyway, good luck!

    Anyone know what the interviews are like/how harsh they are or any tips on what to expect/how to prepare?

    Is it better to be yourself or be as cocky as possible?

    Also, do you think it's okay to wear heels, skirt and blouse?

    ANY HELP WOULD BE VERY APPRECIATED!

    Thanks!
