Any help please?
Also feel free to ask questions about previous steps in the application process!

Hope it went well for you! Do let me know! what position have you applied for?
I'm at manchester, you?
I'm doing the accounting flying start programme. Didn't get a place tho so my entire plan for life has changed 😕. Just gotta make sure that u know their core values because the interview's questions are based on them. Be prepared to speak for about 40 mins - 1 hour. In the group assessment my anxiety completely took over n I stupidly ended up being silent for the majority of it (probably the main reason why I didn't get it). So yeah, just be confident n try not to let any nerves get the best of you.

Oh im sorry about that. Im sure you'll find something else just as good.
What sort of Q's do they ask in the interview? is it the give a time you did x sort of thing?
Also what sort of task is the group one?
Im worried everyone will just talk all over me :/
Exactly that. Think of examples of times where you've shown different skills. the group task we had was where we had 20 minutes in silence to read through a ton of info. Then 30 minutes to talk and agree on an idea. You've got to make sure you make your point and share your ideas even if it's stupid. I think they like to see how you deal with rejection from the other people in your group.
I've got my interview at reading too but i wont be able to go as i am an international student any idea how the phone interview is
