Prepped for the interview using your videos and got a job offer - thank you!

[arronmallory]

Hey Jack, I had a Civil Service job interview, used your videos to revise, and got the job! Thank you for your knowledge I really appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos. Take care dude.

[bgr]

Thank you so much for all of your videos, they were so useful and I got the job!

[violetulaeto]

I would be ungrateful if I don’t come back to say thank you.
After applying to 35 civil service jobs, 6 interviews and 2 reserve list.

Finally got an offer for an EO role.
Thank you

[alexmccormick]

This level of formality in getting a job is just ridiculous. It feels so robotic and unnatural...

[elanabailey]

Thank you so much for the amazing videos you provide. I have just secured my dream job in the Civil Service and have been watching your videos intensely over the past week. Thank you once again!

[raykay]

Your videos are so helpful mate. I used them a lot whilst preparing for my interview and am now waiting for a start date for an HEO position. Your advice on how to structure answers was especially helpful. The best of luck to you.

[cashondaspot]

Thanks so much Jac, I got an offer first time for a SEO policy role!

[wangareful]

Hi Jac, just wanted to say thanks for all your great tips and advice. I just got a job offer with the Home Office.

This entire video playlist has been invaluable information in helping me prepare for interviewing for the Civil Service. I've used several sources of information to help but these videos by far have been the most indepth and well formulated to give you a solid foundation on how to prepare.

Even being posted 2 years ago, they are still helping people get a greater understanding of this process. Thank you Jac!, I wish you every success.

[wasimakram]

Thanks so much for your videos Jac. I watched heaps last year for my interview preparation and they really helped. I got the job. I’m just waiting for my contract to come through. Thanks so much for taking the time to share what you’ve learnt with others in such a clear and helpful way. Wishing you all the best.

Got my interview on Tuesday. Dreading it tbh as first interview in 17 years! I'm ex civil service too. These videos are really helping. Thanks Jac

[R--]

Just wanted to write a comment to say thank you, Jac. After struggling my way through a few civil service interviews and getting rubbish scores, I'd almost completely lost hope and thought I would never get past the interview stage. Now after watching these videos, I've received two provisional offers in the last week! You really make it easy to understand exactly what they are looking for.

This gentleman called Jack is the best 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

I like how he defined the difference between SITUATIONAL Questions and PAST EXPERIENCE.

[SquealTeamSix]

Hi Jac. Just wanted to say Thank You for the hints and tips. Although I had help elsewhere as well, I believe watching your videos definitely helped me pass my latest interview. I scored 6 for both behaviours and total of 10 (out of 12) for 3 strength questions. Thank You.

[BurcuBay]

Hi Jac,

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for your youtube videos. I came across your videos when preparing for a HEO role at HMRC a couple of weeks ago and today i’ve been offered to be on the reserve list and my scores were 5, 6, 6, 6 thanks to you! Xxx

[jadeg]

Just got my email for a video interview! Luckily I have about a month until I have to complete it so am looking forward to watching all your videos!

[Nkelebe]

Jac you deserve a OBE for all the help you offer potential candidates for UK civil service. HRH, if you or your aides ever read any of this public stuff when you are not too busy with royal stuff Jac merits an OBE for his help to potential jobseekers in the civil service

[Fat_Dan]

Very informative and really helpful. I have a online prerecorded interview for a civil service role this weekend and with only two days notice to prepare. Its been years since my last interview so I'm really nervous but super keen to do well. I will take all you advice with me. Keep on creating great content like this please, you've genuinely given me the best insite I've seen whilst studying the web tonight.

[ROO]

Hi Jac, I’ve just come back across your videos and wanted to thank you so much for this guidance. I binge watched this whole series the night before, and morning of, my interview and learned exactly what my interviewers wanted from me. My interview was around this time last year, I was successful and absolutely love my job now. Thanks again, Michael
