She asked me 2 questions:
1. In what way have I had an impact in someone's life or made a difference to their life
2. When have I done the right thing when others haven't

I hope it went good enough to be accepted tbh lool XD when's your interview again?

Ohh okay good luck! (y)
Well my answers were:
1. Basically I did this summer programme called the challenge not sure if you have heard about it or not. But in this challenge thing we had to go to a disability center. So I just said I went there and helped them and did a fund raiser for them
2. I did dofe and this one time we were hopelessly lost so my friends wanted to use the gps on the phone to get out of the farm but that's like forbidden. So I said no coz it's wrong

Basically those were my answers more or less...
Tell me how your interview goes! Btw what year are you in?

Just had my telephone interview. Was quite nervous at the start and I felt it didn't go well but we we will see if I get rejected or not : ( The interviewer gave me 2 questions to answer, questions are roughly like this:

1. Tell me about a time where you have helped someone and made a difference to their life.
2. Tell me about a time when you have done the right thing when others may have not

Hope it helps!

I had the same type of format!

. Has anyone applied for corporate real estate in canary wharf? On taleo it only says complete, which is unusual.

Hi,

I am on the waiting list for the interview and I got the same status as you.

I have been put on the reserve list as well. I got the direct email as well.

My interviewer was quite 'call centre' like if you know what I mean.

Hi, I got the exact same questions as you. She kept on asking me more questions on the examples I gave, so the interview took a little longer.

Yeahh her accent was sorta hard to understand since I was already nervous then I had her repeating her questions since apparently I kept beating around the bush and it just panicked me more so yeahh
