Heyy! How did it go? Do you mind sharing what questions you were asked?

Hey - I think my interview went quite poorly, I'm quite confident I'll get a rejection email over the coming week...

To be honest I wasn't asked anything out of the ordinary - just very general things on my background, education, university and extracurriculars. It's definitely meant to be a casual conversation and if anything I think I overprepared!

They will definitely mould their questions around the information you give them. I think the key is to just be ready to discuss your interests in a lot of detail, and maybe revisit the reason you chose your subjects at GCSE / A-Level / University etc.

Can DM if you want to know more.

Heyy! Don't worry! Move on! I had the interview on 31st. I feel I didn't do well in a lot of the questions but I am waiting to hear back in next 2 weeks.
