Mental health uni interviews

I have an interview with Northampton uni for the mental health course soon. What would you advise I prepare to do well in the interview.

I’ve just had one with Southampton while it’s not the same uni I find it best to prepare what you want to say about yourself and how you fit the role of nursing talking about yourself is always the hard part! 🤣

Hi, I would advise being clear about why you chose mental health nursing, knowing the core values of a mental health nurse ( showing understanding of empathy, non- stigmatizing care, safeguarding and patient safety)

Hey I just recently had my interview and been offered a place on the course.

They really just want to know about you in all honesty. I was so nervous but I didn’t need to be. Make sure you research something that is currently happening within the news or something to do with mental health and nursing. They will ask about this.

Hope it goes well!

I hope that goes well for you.
It's so hard for me to talk about myself.... I had such a hard time writing my personal statement
