How it works
Three steps from rusty to ready.
Choose your role
Pick your role — Registered Nurse, HCA, Midwife, Paramedic, or allied health — and the setting you're applying to.
Practice realistic shift scenarios
Answer behavioural and clinical questions drawn from real NHS shift situations — by voice or text.
Get instant AI feedback
See what worked, what to tighten, and exactly how to improve — across communication, clinical reasoning, and patient safety.
See the kind of questions you'll practise
Real NHS-style scenarios with structured feedback on what matters to interview panels.
Example scenarios
"A patient refuses their prescribed medication. How do you respond?"
"You're short-staffed during a shift on a busy ward. How do you prioritise?"
"A relative is angry that their family member has waited too long. How do you handle it?"
Feedback you'll get
Are you clear, calm, and using plain language? Do you actively listen?
Did you assess, escalate, and act in line with NHS values and your scope?
Are safeguarding, dignity, and risk addressed in your answer?

Built by candidates, for candidates
Designed with input from NHS healthcare workers and recent interview candidates.
"I'd never had an interview before. After a week of practising scenarios, I went in calm and got the job on the ward I wanted."
"The feedback on patient safety was eye-opening. It pushed me to talk about escalation and SBAR — things I'd have skipped."
"Realistic, and it helped me phrase answers in a way that felt natural for NHS panels. Wish I'd found it sooner."
Testimonials are illustrative examples from early users.
