Interview panels will be looking for elements including but not limited to:
  • The details you have provided on your application form about yourself – your education, prior work experience, extra-curricular interests and so on.
  • Your preparation and presentation – this may encompass your preparation and awareness of the programme and the profession as well as your preparation for the interview itself. 
  • Familiarity with recent developments in education in Ireland.
