Hey Guys,

Searching for a little advice.

I have two interviews coming up at the start of May in UCC, for Social Work & Youth & Community Work.

With regards to both interviews, does anybody know what might be asked in the interviews? I was told that for both interviews there would be two parts. A group exercise and an individual interview.

Advice for both would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks very much.

Hey I also did those interviews and thought I did well until I rang the admin office to find out I am on a waiting list for both courses as I didnt make the first round offers, just wondering does anyone know if there is any chance of still getting an offer?? thanks

Hi,

Sorry for the slight delay in replying to your post.

That is a shame that you didn’t get the first round of offers for the courses.

I am not 100 per cent sure what happens if you are on the waiting list. I presume it means if a person refuses a place on either course, depending how far down the list you are, you will then be allocated there place. But I am not sure. Maybe call the admissions office again to clarify what it means.

Hope that helps. ☺
