Hi everyone

I’ve got a Capsticks assessment centre coming up soon and it’s my first AC, so I’m feeling quite nervous and would be really grateful for any insight from anyone who’s done it before (especially last year/recently).
From the guidance, the AC includes:
- Group exercise
- Written task (1h30): short report based on a case study pack
- Interview (up to 45 mins): competency + strengths-based
If anyone is able to share, I’d really appreciate:
- What the interview questions were like (themes / examples of questions)
- What the group exercise involved (e.g. prioritising, choosing between options, negotiation, discussion style etc.)
- What the written task/report was like (SWOT? recommendations? client-focused? what structure worked well?)
- Any tips on how to stand out / common mistakes to avoid
Just general guidance would really help.
Thank you so much in advance!!
