About this interview
This interview is for volunteers who support young people through group activities and mentoring in a faith community. The panel looks closely at safeguarding, respectful communication, inclusion, preparation and the judgement to involve the appropriate leader when a concern exceeds the volunteer's role.
How to prepare
- Review the organisation's safeguarding, supervision and communication procedures before the interview.
- Prepare examples of facilitating a group or supporting someone through a difficult conversation.
- Think through how you would respond to a disclosure without investigating it yourself.
- Plan one simple inclusive activity with a clear purpose and a backup option.
Common mistakes
- Promising secrecy when a safeguarding concern must be reported.
- Contacting participants through unapproved private channels.
- Trying to counsel beyond your competence instead of involving the designated leader.
