Why interview just one candidate?

The NQT Collaborative Interview Event

Every few months we host an 'interview event'. Generally the event ties in with the various resignation deadline dates throughout the year so that schools have a good understanding of what their recruitment needs are or will be for the approaching terms. We invite a number of schools and candidates to the day to give both parties the best chance of securing a position. Having worked on these event many times over the years, we can honestly say that the success rate is extremely high and it really does make the entire process so much easier and most importantly 'time effective' for all involved.


The event is usually held within larger cities or towns so that relocating candidates have easier access. The events are always completely free to attend with tea, coffee and lunch provided. As a minimum, we would expect at least ten candidates and five schools to attend these events but the numbers tend to be much higher. Depending on numbers, informal interviews tend to last no more than twenty minutes with many candidates securing formal interviews at the various attending schools and some have been known to receive job offers on the day itself!

When's the next event?

We plan to conduct our next event early 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, at this stage we are unsure if the event will be held face-to-face at a city centre location or another virtual event similar to the one held this year. Either way it will undoubtedly be a huge success and we look forward to registering your interest! Should you require any further information contact one of the team using the tab below.
