Nao

Hey everyone! I recently applied for the National Audit Office (NAO) Summer Internship Programme, and the next stage - the telephone interview, specifically in financial audits and value for money (VfM) work. But I'm curious to know if anyone here has been through the interview process for this programme or a similar opportunity. What can I expect in terms of questions? I've read a bit about the NAO's work in financial auditing and VFM, but l'd love to hear what kind of questions they focus on during the interview, especially since this programme is open to undergraduates from all disciplines. A few things l'd love to know: • How formal or informal is the telephone interview? • Are the questions mostly competency-based, or do they focus more on your understanding of public sector work? • Any tips on how to best prepare for the interview? (I want to stand out but I don't have formal accounting experience!) Would really appreciate any advice or insights from anyone who's been through it. Thanks in advance
