When interviewing apprentice candidates, it’s useful to bear in mind that they might not have much professional experience. Therefore, the questions need to be tailored to finding out about their personal achievements.
Here are a few examples:
1. Why have you applied for this apprenticeship?
2. What do you think we want from our apprentice?
3. Apprenticeships mean working full time alongside studying for a qualification. How will you prioritise your workload?
4. Give an example of a time you have worked independently.
5. Give an example of a time you have worked as part of a team.
6. Where do you see yourself in five years’ time?
7. Have you got any questions for us?
