Huddersfield explain that they are looking for those who are able to demonstrate a broad understanding of Nursing, and able to back up this understanding with relevant work experience. Work experience may be in the form of employment, or through voluntary experiences. You should have reflected on your transferable skills, and be able to show an array of transferable skills that have been honed through your experience thus far. You should think about the Huddersfield course description, which explains that you will be learning in a hands-on environment from the outset, that you will need to develop leadership and management skills, and that you will have to show team working, communication, and decision making skills – as well as professional values.
Previous students explain that the Nursing interviews at Huddersfield are primarily there to let you explain what you like about Nursing, why you are interested in it as a career, and to tell the admissions team about yourself. You should also be ready to ask questions.There is no numeracy test, nor a literature test. Previous years at Huddersfield have had a personality test in place of a numeracy / literature test.
From previous students’ experiences, you should expect an MMI (Multiple Mini Interview) format. This format involves a ‘blind dating’ style, in which you will rotate through a few different stations in turn. You may expect around four stations, which may have a lecturer, practising nurse, or even a patient or student nurse as your interviewer. They are likely to ask a mixture of standard questions and ethical / professional scenarios. The MMI format has replaced a group interview / one on one interview format that was used beforehand – from there having been a group interview one may assume that Huddersfield places an emphasis on teamworking and communication skills, so consider this whilst moving through the MMI.
