Last Saturday saw the Oxbridge Interviews team visit Oxford to run our first training session of the year for our team of budding volunteer interviewers. We are very keen to provide a high quality service to our interviewees, so the training is important. We also want to support our interviewers well, and ensure that they all feel comfortable interviewing with us.

As always, we were delighted to welcome Barbara Shellard, an Oxford University tutor and interviewer of many years, who helped to run the training programme, ably assisted by her dog, George.

The action-packed schedule included training on interview techniques and the opportunity for our interviewers to practice interviewing. Feedback received on the day was excellent, and we look forward to running more sessions in the coming months.

If you know any Oxbridge graduates interested in hearing more about us, do please let Hannah, our Coordinator, know. It’s an excellent opportunity to develop new skills, meet different people, generate money for a charity of your choice, and support our bursary programme for less advantaged pupils.
