    Odd, I really thought it was just 2 days, but never mind. Sorry to hear that it didn't go well, but in all honesty you never can tell with these interviews - often you think you've done badly but that's just because they're just trying to push you to see how you react. For my current job, my boss actually said that in my interview he was trying as hard as possible to appear mean and uninterested! Don't write yourself off yet, good luck

    From what the sub-dean said yesterday, there was another round of interviews today and that's it. There's 160 being interviewed and there were about 80 yesterday.....I think - don't quote me on that!

    Thanks for the kind comments I just have a feeling I won't get it. I cam out of my others feeling quietly confident but not yesterday haha oh well Warwick to go!

    If it makes you feel any better: I totally messed that one up too. I think the nerves got the better of me. I keep cringing when I think about it!

    I had mine at 3:15. I thought some went ok, but the bad far outweighed the good! AstroMedic I know exactly what you mean. I'm having flashbacks still :s everyone at work keeps saying I probably did better than I thought......but they don't actually know how bad it was!

    Hi All,

    First post to the forum - i've been following it for a while through the application process but my King's interview experience has finally driven me on here!

    Smeane, you must have been in the same group as me on Tuesday. I have to say that I thought it was really tough going and don't think I put my my points across anywhere near as clearly as I wanted. All good experience for the next interview though!
