Prep packs

Prepare for the kind of organisation you are interviewing with

These packs describe general patterns for a type of organisation. They are not about any specific employer, and processes vary a lot. Always follow the instructions you are given for your own interview.

  • Early-stage startup

    Small teams where people cover a lot of ground and the role may change as the organisation grows.

  • Growing scale-up

    Organisations past the earliest stage that are adding structure, process and specialist roles.

  • Large enterprise

    Large, established organisations with defined roles, formal processes and many stakeholders.

  • Agency or consultancy

    Client-service organisations where you work on several projects for different clients.

  • Public sector

    Government bodies, agencies and publicly funded organisations that serve the public.

  • Healthcare and care settings

    Hospitals, clinics, care providers and health-related organisations.

  • Finance and financial services

    Banks, insurers, investment firms and finance teams within other organisations.
