6 question in total. First is not scored.
1 behaviour question and 5 strength questions . Not very difficult, you can grasp it by reading strengths associated with Delivering at pace behaviour. Good luck to you 👌🏻

Hi, were the strength questions based on the behaviour 'delivering at pace' or were they generic?

You get 30 seconds to prepare for behaviour question and have 5 minutes to reply, for strength questions it’s 5 seconds to prepare and 2 minutes for responses
There’s 6 question in total, first one is not scored and will be about what do you like to do in free time, what are your hobbies etc.
Second is behaviour question which will be constructed “tell me about the time when…”
The rest are strengths questions.

Focus on behaviour and strength associated with it:

Delivering at Pace

Use own knowledge and expertise to organise work. Keep focused on delivery and take responsibility for the quality of work produced. Keep a consistent level of personal performance. Keep managers and stakeholders updated on how work is progressing.[/start]

I think it takes a while to hear back, a month or 2 easily, especially this specific job role since its a big campaign.

Thank you. thats really helpful. I've prepared as much as I can but I'm struggling to see how the strength questions will play out relating to the delivering at pace

Hi I’m also doing this interview tomorrow, are all the strength questions based on delivering at pace? Or will some of them be about team work or communication?
