What did they ask you in the hirevue interview? Ive got one too..I'm just preparing for common interview questions now. From what I've read they don't ask you anything technical??


Yeah it’s all just competency stuff. I’m not sure if it depends on the scheme you’ve applied for what you get asked but it’s just basic competency questions. It threw me off quite a bit when I came to do it because I’d researched so much into the company and thought they’d ask at least one question about it but I was wrong. Hopefully I’ll get to the next stage though so the research wasn’t all for nothing haha
Thanks you. And fingers crossed getting through to the next stage 🤞.

Mine is for a degree level apprenticeship. I suppose it will depend what scheme you’ve applied for how soon you’ll have to do it and when they’ll get back to you :smile:

Might take a while for the line manager to get back to you. I received that email almost a month ago and was only updated on my application today. Hope everything goes well for you.

I received an email with a link to a hirevue interview late last week for the engineering apprenticeship in samlesbury/warton.Just wondered if anyone had done their hirevue interview and what questions to expect?

Hey there, just completed mine on Saturday. It's honestly not too bad, though obviously not the same as an actual interview. It's mostly competency based, so don't expect anything about your actual course. The kind of questions I mean would be:

What’s your greatness weakness?
Tell me about a time where you succeeded despite being under pressure?

Those kind of behavioural questions. I can talk about it more over PM if you want, but if you look around on the internet and look for the most common HireVue questions that will probably help you.

Yeah mine hasn't updated either. I have a confirmation email from them thanking me for completing the interview though, so that's good at least.

Yeah my deadline was the 1st and still hasn’t changed so I guess it might not until they have an update to give on whether or not I’ve got to the next stage

Was the hirevue interview a live interview or pre recorded with no human interaction

Just a pre recorded one with no human interaction. You can re-record your answers as many times as you like!
Has anyone received a reply following their HireVue interview stage yet?

I’ve only got the email thanking me for completing it but that’s all. At the end of mine it also said they would get back in touch before the end of April so I’m hoping it might be mid-April maybe
