Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Priory.
Support Worker
It was all competency and situation based questions. I was asked maybe 7-10 questions and was able to answer them all due to a previous care position. This interview would be difficult without previous experience due to the questions being centred around service users. I have heard that some have been tailored for people with no care experience.
- In what ways have you improved a service user's care?
Support Worker
I had a phone interview for the Support Worker position. It was pretty straightforward and they asked some basic questions about my interest in the role, my personal qualities, my motivation for applying to Priory Group, and my reasons for leaving my previous job.
- Could you tell me why you are interested in this particular job?
- What are some of your key qualities that would make you a good fit for this role?
- What is it about Priory Group that interests you?
Support Worker
Had a casual face-to-face chat at the job site with the senior support worker. Mostly talked about my skills and past work history. They also shared details about the company and the kind of work I'd be doing there, along with info about the patients and their reasons for being with Priory.
- Can you describe your previous work experiences?
