University of Derby nursing interview

Can anyone help with what to expect at an interview for nursing with Derby University please 🙏
Any help with types of questions to expect in the one-to-one and the type of group activity they may have would be appreciated!
Really nervous as the interview page says it will be 3 hours for an online one-to-one interview and then a group activity. All of my other interview offers are all just for a standard short one-to-one interview so really nervous for this one!

Hey!🙂 interviews can be nerve wracking but Derby is known for being supportive and student-focused during the process.
I would advise as a midwifery student who may have been asked similar questions:
Give an insight into your values, empathy, include the 6 C's, talk about times you have shown great communication skills and team work as these are paramount through your time being a nurse. Please try not to be nervous the person interviewing is there to support you as well as examine your answers.

Hi there! I’ve also been invited to the interview. Did you got any response? Did they pass you at the interview?
