Macmillan Cancer Support interview questions

Applied early May 2026. Had to complete initial screening call, written assessment, virtual panel interview & in-person assessment day that included facilitation exercise and another panel interview. I went through all rounds over a 6-7 week period. It was a long process, but it was positive and I enjoyed meeting the team and learning about macmillan. They did not ask much about my motivations for applying for the role which felt unusual. I was not successful, and received an email to let me know this. The communication was not forthcoming with feedback. Given the amount of time given to the process, a phone call from the lead recruiting manager would have landed better. I have requested feedback and hope to have a conversation with someone.

It took place via Teams. I received the interview questions beforehand, which gave me time to prepare. The interview itself lasted approximately 45 minutes, although overall it felt quite generic and structured rather than particularly conversational or tailored.
