Just realised you have got a place on the DClinPsy CONGRATULATIONS 🥳 🎉 !!!!!!! Well deserved. Especially on your first try.

You are an asset to the Psychology world. Hoping we see some day in the life of a trainee vids from you soon. I know you will smash this. Sharon is going to be a qualified Psychologist sooooon woooo hoooo get in! 💕
Congratulations! I am so happy for you : ) feeling emotional when your mum picked up the phone too! I just found your channel today and came across the other video when you did a few months ago on how to apply for an AP role! Well done and very well deserved! Thank you for the video too it is helpful : )
Soo happy for you!! You deserve it girl. Perseverance is key in life =) I have my first AP interview in January, you have given me so much insight into what to prepare for. PS, LABAN! I'm also part pinay =D
It truly is!! YASSS LABAN KAHIT MAHIRAP!! Let me know if there's anything specific you need help with, I'd be more than happy to. Congrats on getting an interview, you should be VERY proud of yourself :)
@@SharonB Haha, exactly! And thank you! I was completely surprised as it was a post, out of all other AP posts I've applied for so far, that I thought was hardest to get noticed from (Neurodevelopment with the CAMH Service) and it sits at band 5. I've had exposure through my experience with children and adolescents with neurodevelopment issues. I'm a little worried though about being asked about the duration of my experiences because some of them have just been one off's, for example I was a camp leader for a group of individuals with CP during a week's course of outdoor activities. Would that type of question come up?? I'm just worried they'll deem me as not having enough experiences. In the JS they did only mention "Some knowledge of mental health issues in children and young people". Your thoughts? Have they asked you a similar question before? Salamat gurly x
I have no idea if you will see this, but hey ho here goes. I’ve had three AP interviews now, your first rejection video helped me so much in feeling less like a failure haha! I’m just wondering, does reflection have to include things like ‘and I think I could apply what I’ve learned to the xyz service’ or is it still okay if I say ‘and this taught me a lot about how to handle xyz’ without applying it to the role I’m interviewing for? Congratulations getting onto the doctorate and thank you for your brilliant content thus far!
Congratulations on getting the job! I know how hard this route is but you have done yourself so proud!!! Could I just ask how long they took getting back in touch with you in all three interviews you had? I recently had an interview with the NHS and im just curious
OMG! Congratulations! I'm so happy for you. I wanted to ask if you have any tips and tricks for exam revision? Congratulations once again, I watched your previous video of not getting the position and you were very upset. Watching this video made me very happy. You definitely deserve it. :)
Thank you!! It was such an emotional rollercoaster tbh :') I do have some things that I always did to prep for exam's at uni HOWEVER I got a 2:1 overall, so I don't know if I would be the best person to get revision advice from? I loved using flashcards because they really test your knowledge and I always rewatched every lecture before the exam!
Your videos are so helpful! I am about to graduate and start applying for jobs and this has been amazing. I am so glad that you got this job and I know that you are going to be amazing at it! Please do an update video on how the job is!
Thank you so much for watching!! Congrats for graduating! I'm honestly so happy my videos can help. I am working on editing my first week as an AP but I've got a lot of personal stuff going on atm. Will get it up as soon as possible :) what other videos would you find helpful?
Sharon B thank you!! Yes take your time and whenever ever you can upload is fine!! I think you have covered most things in your videos for getting the job , i think now it would just be your experience!!
Congratulations on getting the job! I just recently came across your channel, found it so helpful for my first upcoming Assistant Educational Psychologist Interview!! I've been applying endlessly for AP posts! Finally got my first one on Friday. Its at a specialist (educational, social, emotional and mental health needs associated with Autism) school for 10-16 year olds. I'm facing a pupil panel interview, spending some time with the kids (I'm guessing observing the classroom day to day activities) then a formal interview with 3 panel members. I am open to any kind of AP post tbh, as I know my end goal is to get on to a doctorate. Any advice and tips on this type of interview would be super helpful! Thats if you have any time lovely xo
I'm new to your channel but well done❣And thanks for the informative video✨ I also wanted to ask if you did a Masters or you came straight from an undergraduate Psychology degree?
@@SharonB You're welks🤗And wow, that's so encouraging; you must have done really well in your degree/got a load of experience🌸 I've been looking for clin/counselling placements like crazy😄
For my placement year I worked as an Honorary Assistant Psychologist in a learning disability team (dementia service) within the NHS which is where my most relevant experience came from. In terms of other experience - I volunteered with the Alzheimer's society as a befriender, worked in a dementia specialist care home as a health care assistant, as a support assistant/PA for a girl with Down syndrome, a playworker for children with learning disabilities and as an ABA tutor for a girl with autism :) (This is what I've done over 4 years)
