Derby university adult nursing interview

I am sure you will be fine! The interview is really relaxed and you have plenty of time with the maths and literacy test, breaks, getting to know people and stuff before you have your individual interview which is only 5 minutes or so.

Just try to relax and be yourself it was the best interview I've been to😊

Hello! I was offered a place on the mental health branch and I know the questions don't differ between branches.

At mine there were two interviewers- a nurse lecturer and a nurse practitioner. The questions they asked me were-

Why have you chosen this branch of nursing?
What experience do you have that will give you an advantage?
Tell us about a time you showed courage?
What does commitment as a nurse mean?
Why this particular uni?
Why is communication as a nurse important?

it is really relaxed, but make sure your know your 6Cs!

No sadly l didn't get accepted at Derby. The maths and English was good and the group interview but the one to one interview had 3 questions and the people interviewing me didn't give the platform or opportunity to display my skills or why l choose Derby as my first choice. I am gutted tbh. How did everyone else do.

Oh no hopefully you will get a place somewhere!

Hi guys,

Im applying for adult nursing for 2017, just wanted to know how was the interview and what did it involve

Dont panic the maths test is easy you won't need a calculator but you cant have one anyway. When I was there there were some people in for 2 Mins and some for 20 mins when they ask a question relate to care experience you have I find it helps me. Unfortunately I dont know if they made me an offer as I withdrew to firm notts as that's the one I decided I wanted after my interviews were finished. Good luck guys im sure you'll do great xx

Hello, I have an interview at the Chesterfield Campus on the 18th of December. I was wondering if anybody else on here has got an interview on the 18th. So excited/nervous at the same time! Really worried about the maths/English tests and the group activity to be honest. Has anybody else already been to a interview at Derby, what was it like?x

Has anyone got this interview on the 12th? i have for adult nursing! x

Yes the tests are very easy and straightforward, you have to watch a video then have a group discussion for which you participation is assessed and the actual interview for me was two questions. 1) tell me about yourself and 2) why do you want to be a nurse and what can you offer? The interviewers are lovely and make you feel so relaxed. Don't panic, just remember your calculator! I'd didnt but they let me use my phone calculator!! Good luck
