What’s inside the prep pack 👇
How Sova really scores you 🧭
How Nationwide’s online assessment ranks you against other candidates, competency by competency, and what’s actually known about whether the video interview listens for keywords or tone.
Reasoning practice 🔢
Numerical and verbal practice questions built around the traps that catch most candidates out.
Nationwide’s behaviours decoded + my VIRTUAL framework 🔁
The four customer-first behaviours on every Nationwide advert, and how my VIRTUAL lenses help you pick the best and worst answers every time.
10 worked judgement scenarios ✍🏻
Practise judgement calls across eight programmes, like these:
a £40,000 gap in your month-end reconciliation, two hours before the deadline
a bereaved customer who can’t find the paperwork she needs
a senior manager asking you to change a measure before the exec meeting
a business owner begging you to promise his loan before Friday’s payroll
The video interview 🎥
2x worked answers to questions real candidates were asked, including “What motivated you to apply for this programme?” & a competency-based question using my CARL method.
The Assessment Event 🎤
A mock group exercise with a mid-task twist, my 12 group roles (with exactly what to say in each), how to present like a top candidate, a timed 8-minute in-tray and likely interview questions.
10 facts to stand out 💡
Researched facts most applicants won’t know, including the Virgin Money integration and the business banking launch, plus commercial awareness talking points.
Your final checklist ✅
What to do before you apply, the online assessment, the video interview and the Assessment Event.
