Student Health Visitor Interview!!

[chewie29]

Hi all.
I am currently a staff nurse on maternity leave and I have been very lucky, I have managed to get an interview for a Student Health Visitor Post tomorrow. Has anyone any advice they can give me for the actual interview? I am stressing as it is something I have wanted to do for a long time! I have send by little man over to his nans this afternoon so I can concentrate, I have just been getting more stressed as the day goes on. I have been preparing for the interview for some time but I'm worried my nerves will ruin it for me! Any advice or tips would be great. Thank you.

Karamel now you got me really worried. What creative writing bit are you referring to. I must have completely flunked it. God have mercy on me.

Sorry samuel, didnt mean to get you in a panic-im just talking about the first part of the literacy test-where you are asked to describe a dream holiday you are about to take and all the things you're planning to do?

I had my literacy test last week and agree it was bloody hard! What exactly are the minimum marks needed for each?

According to the LD website-passmarks in 2012 were 11/15 numeracy 14/20 literacy..im assuming 2012 its the same..or hopefully less lol

Oops..2013 that is!!!

Gave it my best and had hoped fate would take care of the rest. The best well deserved takes longer to shine.

Maybe this week.

Guys one of the girls who went to assessment centre with the London Deanery received her results today. I not heard yet

Me neither :-( ive been constantly checking my emails...

Zek99 - did she find out via email?

Lou yes she did via email!

Ok thanks, still haven't heard anything but quite a few others have!

Lou I have not heard either!

I got an email this morning. Passed:)

Well done Karamel - me too!

Thanks Lou-and congrats to you:) tbh I thought I'd messed up the literacy, but I suppose you never know lool

So did I! Never ever expected to pass when I came out of there!!

Its funny how they're doing the interviews though, because although you may pass the test, they still have to go back and check your application form again before offering an interview? ?

Yeah I don't really get the point in that? Why short list in the first place and then have someone pass the test to then go back to the start again?!

Strange isn't it?...I wonder if anyone didn't pass the test? Cos if I got through, everyone must've lol. But jokes aside, it was not easy, and I really hope everyone on here who is still waiting for results passed, because a lot of us really need this opportunity....
Btw I emailed the deanery re my results and got a reply the next day..so if you're still waiting maybe give that a try :-)

I Know a few people on the Facebook group didn't get through and they were emailed on Friday about it. Just hope it works out for us all!

Please tell me you're not still waiting on whether you have a place or not sweetpie123???? :-O
