What are you preparing for?

Each job carries its own panel, its own questions and its own score history. Add a new job description and the interview retargets around it.

Question pack

Prep

The panel

Simulated interviewers. Not real British Council staff — the personas exist to give each line of questioning a consistent manner.

Every question they can ask

Read these before your first run if you want, or go in cold — cold is closer to the real thing. Open a question to see what a strong answer contains, what will sink it, and which of your own material to reach for.

Score history

Are you actually getting better?

Every completed interview, scored on the same rubric. The transcript of each one is kept here in full.

Your material

What the panel knows about you

This is the pool your questions are built from. Keep adding to it — an achievement logged in March is something April's panel can ask you to prove.

CV and work history

Paste the version you're actually submitting. It is read when your questions are written and when you are marked, so keep it current.

Achievements log

Anything you'd want a panel to ask about. Small entries are fine — the point is that they accumulate.
