I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at NHS (Birmingham, Inglaterra) in Nov 2024
Interview
I had to wait an hour for the interview to start. Questions were fairly simple nothing to catch you out too much. I was told I would hear back in a few days but heard nothing - it would have been nice to at least have some feedback, which is the only reason for the negative review. I personally believe that if you've been to an interview some form of correspondence or feedback to inform you of the outcome is only fair.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Which one of our values in your opinion is the hardest to achieve?
What interests you about this role?
What do you think this role involves?
First is an assessment day where there is a presentation outlining the job you have applied for. Then there are icebreaker questions and an icebreaker game (usually pictionary). Then there is an assessment where you look at blood tubes and fill out the details onto the computer and write down any mistakes you see. Lastly there is a laboratory tour.
If you pass the assessment you are invited for an interview where there a a panel of interviewers.
The interview started late. Two interviewers. It felt as though they had already selected their candidate and the interview was more of a formality because I was booked. The questions were straightforward.
