Home Office interviews

I have a civil service interview this week for a mid Management role with a 10 minute presentation. I've always worked in the private sector and am a bag of nerves for this interview. I've not had alot of time to prepare (family commitments, pre planned holiday) and just don't feel ready for it. I keep hearing how difficult Home Office interviews are and it seems a complete contrast to private sector interviews.
Does anyone have advice please?

Read the civil service behaviours and research the STAR scheme for how to answer a question. it's very formulaic and impersonal in the CS. it's not hard just takes a bit of practice to get the way you answer questions right

Thank you. Looking at the behaviours and found YouTube clips on how to answer the behaviour questions. It seems such a tough process.
