It was like other interviews I've had. I got screened first, and then I came in to the building for the interview with a panel. The whole thing lasted about an hour and a half. I was happy with how it went, seemed pretty normal.

The whole thing was chaotic. I couldn't get into the building for the interview, so I was just wandering around trying to get someone to let me in by knocking on windows. There were two women interviewing me. When a coworker tried to ask them a question, they were rude to her and then rolled their eyes after she left. It all seemed very amateur and unprofessional. The interview itself wasn't too hard, just standard questions.

Applied online and got an interview invite a few days after the closing date. The interview panel had two Administration managers. There was an audio-typing assessment and an Excel copy-typing test. The interview went really well but at the end I realised they were hiring internally and I was just a formality. They offered to cover my travel costs, which is pretty rare for NHS jobs.
