How to prepare for your Face to Face Assessment Centre

Key tips and advice on what to expect for your assessment centre.

In a changing world, we decided as a firm to have a variety of assessment centres both virtual and in person.

We are here to support you through this process and if you have questions at any time, please email: [email protected]

2:00pmFeedback from the day

Please understand that timings are approximate. We will do our best to run to time, but we encourage interaction from you, and this may mean some timings run differently on the day.


Tips for the day:

Prepare

  • Have you read all the instructions you have been given?
  • Have you checked your commute and journey in?
  • Do you have stationary, like a pad, pen, and calculator?
  • Do you have your right to work and predicted grades ready for scan?

Interact on the day!

We want to get to know you. If you are quiet all day, with no good questions to ask, you will be difficult to assess and mark.

Take Breaks

We have made time for short breaks and a lunch break during the day. Please get up and move. You will be able to go out of the building to get some fresh air.
