Interviewer
Can you give me an example of when you demonstrated compassion in your work? This is one of our core NHS values.

During a busy shift, I noticed an elderly patient seemed distressed even though they hadn't called for help. I took a moment to sit with them, found out they were worried about a procedure the next day, and made sure the team was briefed on their anxiety...
Interviewer
How did that affect the patient's experience, and how did you balance that with the demands of a busy ward?

What NHS interviews look like

NHS interviews vary by role and band but consistently test values, competency, and situational judgement.

Values-Based Questions

Questions anchored in the NHS Constitution's six core values — care, compassion, competence, communication, courage, and commitment.

Competency Questions

STAR-format questions on teamwork, prioritisation, handling conflict, and managing difficult situations in a clinical environment.

Situational Judgement

How would you handle a staffing shortage, a complaint, or a safeguarding concern? Scenario questions testing real-world judgement.

Any NHS role or band
