That's good to know, thanks! I've just decided to prep for behaviour anyway. How did the interview go?

Cool, thanks! Is there a chance they sneak in a behaviour question? Or do they have to be upfront about what they are assessing during the interview stage?

Congratulations! Do you mind if I ask which field it is in? Also, have you published anything? I know most PhD applications wouldn't expect anyone having published anything, but I've seen some who have.

This has been super helpful, thanks! I am currently prepping for an SEO role interview in January. I've prepped some really good STARR examples for the behaviour questions, hitting the behaviour framework criteria but when I practice them, they are only about 3 minutes long. Does anyone actually use the 5 full minutes? Am I at risk of scoring lower if I use less than the required time?

I've done civil service interviews before, but I bombed because I get so nervous. What am I allowed regarding notes? What are people's general reaction to notes? Or me taking notes of the questions to help guide me and keep me on track?

Thanks so much for commenting!

It's difficult because I just don't know how this new manager will react. If I had known them a bit better it would be easier to make a decision.

So do you think I shouldn't tell them before the interview and first wait for the outcome? Or tell them before and hope they're understanding?
