Behavioral Other
The interview was held on Whatsapp video call, which I found very unprofessional. Their internet connection was having issues and hence they switched the interview to a regular phone call. Furthermore, the interview panel members who were supposed to conduct the interview were not present, instead there were some other members of the institution who were just mentioned during the phone call. The interview was supposed to start at 11.15 am, however it started 20 mins later which I was not informed of. Overall, it was a very unprofessional experience.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview process at the NHS is quite challenging and can be anxiety-inducing, but it does follow national equal opportunity guidelines. In my experience, there was an interview panel of three to four people. This panel consisted of the team service manager, a consultant psychiatrist, a family therapist, and a service user. They asked me about 8 questions, some of which were two-part, focusing on my professional and interpersonal skills.
