Hi. I did an interview with the home office for a different role and it had 6 pre recorded questions with 30 seconds to think and 2 mins to answer.

The best advice I can give you is if the job advert tells you what civil service behaviours will be assessed (such as communication etc then have a look at those on the website and then have a think about your own experiences that relate to those.

E.g how you would deal with a stressful situation

Hi all, I have applied for an AO job with the Home Office and have been invited for a pre-recorded interview, which I must complete in five days. I am concerned anyone here has applied for this position and undertaken to pre-record interviews. I am so nervous and anxious and seeking any questions that require answers. any one who has gone through the same process can share with me the type of questions?

I hope it went well for you and you hear back soon :smile:

I’ve applied for the same role. Seems that will take time for an outcome. I was extremely nervous as well as one of our colleagues also mentioned. Good luck to you all 🤞🏼

Hi ya, my questions seem similar to yours.
In what way you look for new information
if you completing a task, ....taking account in people's view, sth like that
I couldn't remember all of them. I was so nervous, all these questions were not prepared and I was shocked when those questions came up on the screen. how do I suppose to answer it. you don't even have enough time to think at all.
my brain gone blank straight away and still had to try find sth to talk about.
what an experience.
