INTERVIEW GUIDE

How do I prepare?


  • We'll expect you to talk about your work. Be able to analyse and identify its strengths and weaknesses.
  • Brush up on your knowledge of LCCA and the industry you're interested in.
  • Research the course you're applying for. A good way to do this is to come to an open day.
  • Be able to show that you're a team player and that you can manage time efficiently.
  • Practice at home. Make sure you can say three things about every piece of work in your portfolio that aren't obvious just by looking at them.

What else do I need to know?


  • Arrive on time and report to the main reception.
  • Your interview will take around 20 to 30 minutes, but you should expect to remain on campus for up to two hours.
  • You will be interviewed by at least two people, including a member of the course staff.
  • You may have to participate in a group interview.
