Interview format

The interview will be conducted using MS Teams and will comprise one station with 4 components including a scored portfolio-based questions' component. The portfolio itself will not be reviewed, but candidates would draw from their portfolio to answer the questions.

Before the interview commences, applicants will be briefed on the interview process and will be required to confirm their identity with the interview administrator. It is therefore important that applicants have a suitable photographic ID available (passport or UK photo driving license).

In addition, applicants will be required to move their camera to show the entire room where they are undertaking the interview, to confirm that nobody else is present.

Once identity has been confirmed, the administrator will advise the interview panel that the interview process can commence.

The interview must not be recorded by either the applicant, the administrator, or the panel members.

Each component of the interview will cover different criteria from the person specification and will last for up to 10 minutes. Candidates will be given advance notice of a topic with instructions to prepare for the presentation component of the interview. (Subject to change)

Please note there may be a Lay Representative present at your interview.
