I really hope so! 16 all together but one of them
Is showing your driving licence. Really random. You don’t have much time to think. They are like how would you relay complex info to a team member who was new. I can’t remember much to be honest, it’s all a blur! My head hurts now lol x

Yeah they are. You really have to think on your feet. I felt like I repeated myself a lot and a lost my train of thought on one 🙈 just awful 😂

I know. Around 30/35 mins. I cut some of my answers short as really ran out of things to say without waffling. Would rather have a face to face interview where you can get probed!

So I completed my interview today but I think I’ve uploaded the wrong document. Does anyone know how I contact them? I’ve emailed the email address but worried I won’t hear back from them

Heyyy Leah, how was the interview?

On the bottom of the email they should have an email address or a contact number; opening hours are Mon-Fri 09:00 - 18:00.

The interview itself wasn’t too bad to be honest. I did feel like I waffled a little bit but fingers crossed it went okay.
Ahh thank you I’ve emailed the email address but worried they won’t reply in time. I can’t find a contact number anywhere 😔

Leah - good to hear you had a positive interview. :smile:

- normally they are good, if an incorrect document has been submitted then they will liaise with you. - i wouldn't stress about it - just enjoy the interview is over and done with. :biggrin:

Is it true that there won't be a panel interviewing you?
