Ace Your UK Interview: Free Mentoring for International Students & Grads

Presented by Karla Magpayo and Stephanie Limuaco

Are you an international student or recent graduate finding the UK job interview process daunting?

You’ve perfected your CV, written countless cover letters, and finally landed the interview. But now, a new set of questions arise. How is a UK interview different? How do you stand out? How do you answer "Tell me about yourself" in a way that truly impresses?

You're not alone in this. At Critical Path Finder, we've walked this exact path. As former international students who have successfully built careers and become hiring managers in the UK, we understand the unique challenges you face.

That’s why we are inviting you to a free, interactive mentoring call to demystify the interview process and equip you with the confidence to succeed.

We will share our first-hand experiences—from both sides of the interview table—and guide you through the three critical stages of any successful interview.

What You'll Learn

Discover how to articulate your international perspective and cross-cultural skills as key assets.

Why Guidance Matters More Now

Ever changing UK visa regulations

The landscape for international talent in the UK is shifting, making expert guidance crucial. From the Graduate Visa Route to thresholds of Sponsored Work, there is greater pressure to proactively plan.

Mental wellbeing is ever more important

Being thousands of miles from home, family, and friends in a damp, cold country can lead to significant homesickness and feelings of isolation. Learn ways to cope and beat the UK weather.

Cost of living in the UK is increasing

Accommodation, transportation, and entertainment are substantial expenses. Understanding tenancy agreements and council tax can also be confusing for newcomers.

Cultural adjustment and social integration

Understanding unwritten rules of the UK workplace, such as the emphasis on soft skills, teamwork, and how responsibilities and hierarchies are sometimes less explicit, can be crucial for success.
