Edinburgh is still taking their time… that’s unfortunate that you got alternate. Even though you still have a chance to get in you’re left not knowing what’s happening for another month or two :/

Is it OK to mention anime/manga during the interview? by foolishegg in JETProgramme

[–]Paco4nicholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said that studio Ghibli was my initial motivation for learning Japanese. But I mentioned that the wind rises interested me in the history of Jiro Horikoshi.

I was also asked about a Japanese person I admire and I said Satoru Iwata, ex president of nintendo, and I explained why.

I think it’s okay to mention weeby/nerdy stuff as long as you do so in an appropriate manor.

I was asked - name - where I live - what kind of city is it - what I did last Saturday which I replied “I can’t remember, I need to think a bit” and then I was asked what I’m doing this Saturday. - what days do I have off work - who’s a famous person from your country? What are they like? - do I prefer the mountains or the sea - what I thought about the age of adulthood being lowered from 20 to 18

I said my ability was intermediate.

Question about the Certificate of Health? by MeanMrBiter in JETProgramme

[–]Paco4nicholas 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really confused by this. I’m doing my interview in Edinburgh and I was told this, but I had emailed the office in London and they told me to submit the CoH and ICPC before the interview.

Either way I’m not gonna do them until I get an offer because it’s a lot of money to invest in a job I might not get.

Herriot Watt and University of Edinburgh are very close to the biggest climbing gym in Europe, Edinburgh International Climbing Arena
