@CamembertPaws FYI

Hii, I'm Hanifa and I'm 18 yrs old. I've applied to King's, uel, lsbu, greenwich and city. I have 2 interviews coming up and was able to get offers from kings, lsbu and greenwich. But I can't really decide where to go. I really wanted to go King's but I've compared stats to greenwich and its very different. Also I've heard about their organisation being quite poor but greenwich is too far so idk 🤷*♀️

I'm currently studying alevel bio, psych and geo

Thank you!
Yes I’ve been making sure I’ve got as much knowledge as I can on everything since I got the interview offer😆 Fingers crossed I’ve done enough 🤞🏻😅x

Hi Hanifa, when did you have your interview with Greenwich? I had mine today and felt it went badly 😭 the nerves got the better of me, I think, but fingers crossed that they saw through my nerves. There was so much more I wanted to say 🫣 congratulations on receiving an offer 😊 x

Thank you!! I had my interview on the 16th of November and got an offer a week later. Honestly don't stress about your interview, I felt the exact same way and I remember thinking I didn't say what I wanted to say. I thought it was a definite fail but it wasn't, so there's hope. I'm sure you did great. They told me they'd get back to me in Jan but it was only a week later on Friday so wait 2 weeks

Hey all, just wondering what people have been preparing for interviews? Not sure specific please!

I've got my 6 C's and the code, my motivations and the role of the midwife down but I had an interview once where they asked me how I would promote dignity and respect in the role and it totally threw me 🤣 I'd really like to avoid that happening again!

What sort of "topics" should we read around outside the typical stuff?

Again, please don't offer anything you've had from a specific institution!

Hello!
I had my interview today!
Sounds like you’re doing the right things, I’d recommend also doing some reading on current issues in midwifery, read some reports on areas that genuinely interest you. Have a look at things like Better Births, MBRRACE, the Ockenden report.
Let your passion shine through!
Good luck 😌

Hi! Thanks for replying! I've done that all already but I just really want to make sure I nail this 🤣 I'd hate not to get in after getting in in 2022! It was so much easier applying directly from college as everything was still fresh but now they'll ask me stuff and it'll be "I used to know how to answer that" 😭

Hi, who did you have your interview with, please?

I completely get that! I’ve been out of education for a while so totally understand that feeling.
I’d just have a Google of possible questions that might come up too and try and have a rough answer for as many as you can they won’t be exactly the same as the questions you’ll be asked but they could be similar! And obviously you can’t prepare for everything but it’s nice to have an idea to give you some confidence going into it!
It sounds like your passionate though and doing all the right things so try not to put too much pressure on yourself and let them see that passion!

Ugh I hate how stressed I'm getting. It's why I fluffed my Keele one. I got an offer for nursing from them which ultimately means I failed the interview. Heartbroken so now I'm getting in my head too much 🤣

Hi, who did you have your interview with, please?

My interview was with Hull

Not at all! If you’d failed the interview you would have just been rejected. They must have seen something in you if they offered you a place in nursing, because there’s the option to do the midwifery top up course once you’re an adult nurse.
Honestly think I messed mine up today because I was so nervous so I completely understand, but nerves mean you care so l think they’d be concerned if you weren’t nervous!

Ah I feel exactly the same about my interview today. There was one that just really caught me out and my mind went completely blank. I was SO nervous I think it just got the best of me. Good luck for your interviews tomorrow!! Where are they for? I’m sure you’ll absolutely smash it 😊
