Our Interview Preparation Days are designed to help applicants develop and demonstrate the skills and confidence they need to perform to the best of their ability at interview. The events are interactive and intensive, combining communication skills workshops, mock interviews and feedback.

When and Where

We run a series of nationwide Interview Preparation Days through November and into December giving all applicants the opportunity to attend one of our events.

Our Programme

Each Interview Preparation Day consists of three main components. These combine to ensure that applicants gain the interview skills and experience they need to perform to the best of their ability in the real interview in December.

10.00 - 10.30: Introduction

The day begins for all applicants with a half hour talk on what makes a successful Oxbridge applicant, the aims of the day and a run through of the day’s programme.

10.30 -17.15: Three Main Components

Applicants are then divided into three groups and move around the three main components of the event. There is a thirty minute lunch break after the first component.

17.15 – 17.30: Plenary

Applicants come together in one group to review the day and to put together an action plan.

Choosing your Interview Preparation Day Package

Applicants require varying levels of support. This is why we offer two Interview Preparation Day packages so that you can choose which best accommodates your needs.
