When to start practising
An interview tests whether you can give a structured, specific answer out loud, under time pressure, to someone who presses you. That improves with repetition, so most candidates need six to eight weeks of regular spoken practice before the interview. For interviews 5 October 2026 to 6 October 2026 (East Midlands), that is under eight weeks away, so start now. Short daily sessions work better than occasional long ones.
