"It surprised me how real everything felt. The scenarios mirrored real airline assessment centres."

ElinamElinamGroup Assessment Workshop attendee

I walked in nervous, not knowing what to expect, but the exercises felt so real, almost like an actual airline assessment centre. Watching how differently everyone approached the tasks taught me a lot about my own style, and the feedback was specific enough to actually use.

"There was a two minute stretch where we were all clarifying each other's ideas, and we realised that's exactly what was getting us the high marks."

JamieJamieGroup Assessment Workshop attendee

Because of this workshop, I've learned that next time we need to look at the task together as a group right from the start, instead of splitting off. There was a stretch where we were all clarifying each other's ideas and bringing everyone in, and that's when it really clicked for me.

"I didn't realise interrupting someone could cost you marks. The mark scheme changed how I saw the whole task."

AneshAneshGroup Assessment Workshop attendee

I thought I was already assessment ready, but my prep had been surface level. I hadn't realised how much assessors focus on teamwork and structure, not just getting the task done. Small things like using inclusive language made a real difference.

"The small group setting meant it felt one-on-one and realistic. I got advice that was specific to me."

FariyahFariyahGroup Assessment Workshop attendee

I went in with zero confidence and felt a bit lost. The small group setting made it feel one-on-one, so the feedback was tailored to me, not generic. I came out feeling genuinely prepared and confident for interviews.

"This workshop showed me how to stay focused on the task while mainly listening to everyone else, because that's actually what you're being assessed on."

GabbiGabbiGroup Assessment Workshop attendee

Because of this workshop, I've learned that next time I need to make sure I bring in people who aren't speaking as much. I didn't expect how hard it would be to focus on the task, listen to everyone else, and think about what I'm being assessed on, all at once, until I actually did it.

"I learned I was focused too much on solving the task, and missed the thing I'm actually assessed on, bringing people into the conversation."

SamSamGroup Assessment Workshop attendee

Because of this workshop, I've learned that next time I need to take the initiative early and get a sense of everyone's strengths first. I went in thinking it was just about solving the task, but attending showed me it's really about communication and understanding everyone's perspective.
