I'm sure you guys have heard of it, but Understanding Social Work by Thompson is a brilliant book, I'm reading it at the moment, and its giving me a good grounding before I go to interview. Really enjoying it.
Does anyone know much about occupational health? I'm really worried about it, I have past and current mental health problems and I don't know what to expect. Does anyone know any guidelines about occupational health, or have any experience?

I had an occupational health check when studying social work a few years ago, although they may not want to see you, but just get a letter from your doctor saying that you are okay to do the course.
If not, the meeting just means answering questions about your condition, treatment etc, and as long as you are not a risk to yourself or someone else, you should be absolutely fine to do the course
Hi when you accept an interview do they let you know before hand what to prepare or do I just turn up on the day? ThanksThanks

I've just got an interview for Edge hill on the 18th March at 2pm only been told the date and time no other information. Anyone else the same? Or actually been given information about what they require at interview?

I don't know much about timescales but I'm starting to worry that I've not heard from Hull yet offering an interview. Is there time yet or is it looking unlikely?
If they didn't want you, they would of said no by now. My mate applied December only just starting to hear for interviews now.

Heyy! I have my interview for Queens tomorrow morning! One of the things on the guidance sheet was to know current news about social work! Anyone any examples?
Did you ask any questions at the end?

I had my interview yday at magee.. They literally asked nothing about current issues in the news.. they had 6 questions, everyone must be asked the same because the sheet is sitting infront of you and you can see them all.. They asked about human rights so read over them and relate them to service users right to privacy, etc.. They also ask what can you learn from service users.. that was the one that i found tricky but managed to say something ... Good luck!..

Thank you, that makes me feel a bit better. I'm being impatient but the waiting game is awful!

Ive got my bath interview tomorrow, and cant get my head around this article theyve given me about gay and lesbian adoption, any on had their interview that could help?
Don't worry about it, you don't need to understand the article in depth in order to answer what they ask, just as long as you understand a little bit about Gay/Lesbian F+A you'll be fine.
Good Luck!!

The waiting is slowly driving me insane! I don't know how im going to wait another 2weeks!
The interview was alright, all the tutors that I had a chance to talk to were really nice, it was all over in about 2hours! They're really small interview groups which i thought was nice too, only about 10 other people at my interview!
Good luck with it
