What is the podcast about?


In another of the RICS candidate support instalments of The RICS Podcast, RICS were delighted to be joined by RICS member, assessor and mentor (and co-founder of Property Elite), Jen Lemen BSc (Hons) FRICS.


Offering a perspective from the other side of the interview table, Jen shares advice on how to prepare for the big day, and some best practice hints and tips to get you through the interview.


This episode of The RICS Podcast covered:

  • How candidates can best use their preparation time

  • Balancing revision with relaxing to overcome stress

  • Methods for handling questions that candidates can’t answer

  • How to beat nerves on the day, and how assessors approach visibly nervous candidates

  • Common myths and misconceptions about the final assessment interview


How can we help?
