Question 1
As a listing coordinator, you may have to flag potentially sensitive cases or process time critical applications as early as possible, how would you do this effectively?
I interviewed at Historic England (Manchester, England)
Interview
Relatively informal, standard questions. Took the time to explain the team structure, though was some confusion about the role within the room. There was a prep task as well which involved creating a workshop for tutoring teams on use of a new tool. No extensive interview feedback, but was more feedback about the application itself.

Question 1
Can you talk about a time that you worked in a team?
I applied online. I interviewed at Historic England (Manchester, England) in Apr 2024
Interview
The interview was online with two people. It was friendly, they asked around 4 competency based questions and one motivational question. I did not get the job. There was an option to ask for feedback, so I did, but their feedback was vague and only positive with no details of how I could improve in the future or what the successful candidate did well.
