I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Childline (Belfast, Northern Ireland)
Interview
Scenario based questions in which you have to give your view on how at risk a child is. Due to differing age ranges, opinions and the way we perceived situations personally the interview did end up rather tense. Lasted roughly an hour and a half with questions which made it relatively easy to form an answer. Easy interview if you aren’t extremely opinionated.
