Students from the North East who’ve applied to Oxford or Cambridge can attend our interview skills workshops, run in partnership with King’s College, Cambridge and the Oxford for NE consortium.  

We’ll be running four workshops, each focused on a different subject area: 

  • Arts and Humanities (Monday 8 November) 
  • Medical Sciences (Tuesday 9 November) 
  • Sciences (Wednesday 10 November) 
  • Social Sciences (Thursday 11 November). 

Interview skills 

Each workshop will start off with a general interview skills session, led by outreach staff and student ambassadors. We’ll discuss how you might want to prepare for your interview, what skills interviewers may be looking for, and how virtual interviews may differ from traditional in-person interviews. 

Subject-specific Q&A sessions 

In the second half of the workshop, you’ll be able to speak to student ambassadors who applied for the same subject as you, or a similar one. You can hear about their experiences at interview and ask any specific questions you have about the interview process for your subject.
