[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 117232, member: 2672"] It’s very easy for an interviewer to fill an hour interview with questions. In fact the challenge can often be keeping to time. They won’t just be asking you about your experiences (in fact they may not ask about the things you have listed at all). If this is a vacation scheme interview, there are could be a whole range of questions about how you have found your scheme, what you got up to, what you enjoyed/what you didn’t, what you worked on, how the schemes has refined your career motivations. You could also be asked about the rest of your plans for the summer, what you will do after the scheme etc. And on top of that you could be asked commercial questions and get into a conversation with your interviewer about them. Even if you are asked about your past experiences like those you have listed, you’ll typically be asked questions that will pull out specific details and be asked to explain scenarios. You could also be given forward looking questions, that ask you to think about how you might tackle situations you would face as a trainee. [/QUOTE]
