I need help to feel better after my interview. I think my biggest flop was the safeguarding question I stumbled so hard lowkey don’t know what it is but it’s a college so I forgot to practice that. I did a lot of “and yeah”. The questions were tailored to someone with more experience so they had to rephrase so I could answer using my degree as a basis. The 30 min task based on credit control and excel I just about finished with no time to double check my answers. It was meant to be 1hr over within 30ish. I’m so scared for the phone call and thank god I hear back within a day or I’d drive myself crazy. Can’t believe I fumbled it so bad but I’m gonna try keep hoping there was 5 candidates so I got a 20% chance 🤧.

I’m not sure if this is the right thread but my end goal is to be a chartered accountant. I have an interview coming up for a finance income assistant role but worried about what type of questions to expect this is my first professional job interview. I’ve only worked in retail before. I’ve just graduated with BA hons Accounting and finance degree and the interview process says there will be a 30 min task on credit control and excel.

Hey I’ve studying accounting and finance from a Top 50 university and have strong grades in core modules that gave me qualification exemptions e.g 83%, 68% and more. But I still ended with a 2:2 due to an average of 58.96%. There’s nothing I can do with a the grade (still mentally accepting that) but I want to land a 2027 grad scheme plus I’ve only got 4 years retail experience . Is there anyone that landed a grad scheme leading to a qualification with a 2:2? I wanted to audit but I know I’m limited so I’m open to any qualification end goal. Also what are my chances ? I really loved accounting but optional module grades really dragged me down (still not over it). I’m prepared to start early like mid august with applications hoping to strengthen my chance’s.
