National Citizen Service interview questions

After applying for the role, I was initially contacted by a recruiter from NCS Trust for a screening online call. After the screen call, I was invited to a panel interview, for which I was asked to prepare a 10-min presentation on a given topic relevant to the role. The interview panel consisted of two senior members of the team. The panel asked me questions about my presentation and then a few competency-based questions. I was informed of the focus areas for the competency-based questions in advance by the recruiter, but the questions were quite different from what I had expected and prepared for. The last stage of the recruitment process was an online interview with the head of the team. I unfortunately didn't get to this stage but received a feedback about the first interview.

Very informal and less intimidating. The questions were focused on why you want to work for them and the particular role you want. Also asked: Give an example of a time where you had to collaborate with others. Mostly motivational questions were asked. The interview took place on a Microsoft Teams.
