i interview regularly for NHS but frontline - I guess you may be applying for role behind the scenes or in an office?
don't hide ADs - if it asks how this is managed say you've received counselling and its all working effectively - the interviewers won't see this anyway- you should've been asked to either take it along in a sealed envelope with your name on or send it direct to Occ Health. If you haven't then phone HR and ask why not. Occ Health will ask to see you if you are successful and feel your answers require this. You are more likely to be called though to have a HepB jab rather than question your PND.
there's likely 3 interviewers because people that already work there may have applied therefore they need to be seen to not being discrimatory - I have had an interview for a band 6 role with the same 3 interviewers because of this. Another reason may be that there may be similar jobs or same in another dept therefore may be in interview so can offer a different job if not successful for this one - we do this regularly - 2 nurses from different wards interview for support workers. Though it might just be the banding level at which you are applying - in our trust all Band 6 and above are at least 3interviewers.
the first question 9/10 is usually tell me a bit about yourself and how you've come to apply for this job / want this job.
again stress and dealing with it is regularly asked.
how do you deal with conflict - i.e. angry patient, disagreement with a team member
if a direct care role may be given scenarios and ask how you would respond - we tend to set one around violence and aggression - how do you deal with patient facing up to you and swearing and shouting (note- I work in forensics with mentally disordered offenders)
we may also ask about how you may adjust to working a 24/7shift pattern. nights, weekends etc.
what are you weaknesses? but offer your solution to deal with it i.e. I find it difficult to meet a deadline but to combat this I re-set deadlines earlier so I get the work done on tim
and prepare prepare prepare. some things I do are:
list by each statement on job description what I can do / done / what I need to improve
research the service and job role as much as you can
if an invite to visit prior to interview is offered - take it, usually get a good feel to the environment and colleagues
Alot of nhs interviewers use a keyword system to mark responses so remember to mention employment policies and procedures; legislation etc where necessary
I hope this goes some way to help
