I emailed them and explained, they changed it to another date, there weren’t any options they just rescheduled it, they also responded within like 3 days

Did my interview today. I felt it went well, wasn't too bad at all.

I think it's very much about being able to use your experiences in a versatile way. So if you have one work experience, try to think of a communication event that happened that you could talk about, a teamwork event you could talk about etc. Splitting up your work experience into the different applicable skills will ensure you're not caught off guard when different questions are posed to you because you can always use the same work experience at different stations. Practice practice practice and you will be good to go hopefully.

Tbh I thought most of my stations were pretty decent but I thought I absolutely fumbled the calculation station. If you’re waiting for an offer or interview I’m sure you’ll get it super soon!!!

The questions were pretty decent if not a bit wordy. I just didn’t read the fact I needed to change my units so my answers were 1000x too big 😅 so I would definitely say read the questions properly.

Even so a mistake like that would only take a few points off given the answer is equivalent but it seems u did great overall so well done
