Credibility Interview Questions 2020

1. Are you fit and well to be interviewed today?
Yes I am pretty well and excited for this interview.
2. Why did you choose UK for your studies?
With so many world-class degrees on offer in the UK, it’s easy to see why we’re the best possible
place for us to study. That’s because a UK degree gives you more than just an outstanding
academic qualification. It can also provide us with valuable work placements, and all as part of
your studies.
These placements, internships and volunteering positions are designed for us to build new skills,
make new contacts and apply your learning in a real-world, professional environment. And as UK
universities have such strong links with every type of industry (from engineering to fashion to
science and more) you’re sure to find a placement that’s right for us.

There’s another reason that UK graduates are among the most employable in the entire world,
and they’re earning more and progressing further than their peers educated elsewhere. And UK
degree can help us to really stand out in an increasingly competitive jobs market.

The UK’s academic reputation is world-renowned. Built on a heritage that is now centuries old,
our approach to education applies the very latest learning theory through universities that
routinely top international tables. Our innovative teaching methods produce successful, versatile
graduates who are sought-after by employers around the world.

World-ranked universities
UK universities have featured strongly in world rankings ever since they began. In 2021 the Times
Higher Education World Rankings honoured us with two of the world’s top ten universities,
including the world's top university – the University of Oxford. This high quality can be found
right across the country, with seven of the top 50, and 26 of the top 200 universities found here
in the UK.
Built-in flexibility
In the UK, flexibility is built into the majority of our courses. Many universities allow you to
choose from different subject ‘modules’, so you can build a course programme that suits you
down to the ground, specialising as you go for a perfectly tailored experience.

taking just one year. So you get better value for money and can begin applying your knowledge in
the real world a lot sooner.

Think differently
Our educational system doesn’t just immerse you in your chosen subject – it’s designed to help
you to think differently. Throughout your studies you’ll be encouraged to ask questions, debate
your teachers and fellow students, and come up with your own ideas through a blend of practical
learning, lectures and seminars and innovative, high-tech teaching.

abroad, UK courses offer lots of ways to take your first steps into the world of work. From
placements, internships and opportunities to gain professional accreditation, we’ll make sure you
take your first steps on the career ladder with confidence.

3. Have you consider this course in any other country or in Pakistan?

I started my research in my home country regarding ---------- programs. There are many institutes
in my home land that provide ------------------or similar courses to my purposed course. Therefore, I
visited these institutes personally few of them are Superior Group of Colleges, University of
Management and technology, National College of Business Administration & Economics Virtual
University, Preston University, Punjab University; Jhelum Campus. I was not satisfied by their
quality of education the focus is only given to theoretical knowledge practical knowledge is
nowhere to be seen. International exposure, course structure was not up to date. Student that
have studying last semester there, were saying that they were not able to get good job due to
lack of practical knowledge all they knew was books but don’t know how to use the knowledge.
Few of them got the job but they are facing problem at their work place because of out dated
education. I have observed Punjab University Jhelum campus very closely as I have studied there
for a while. I hate to admit that all I do was wasted money.
That made me think what if I ended like them. My career will be ruined. So, I decided, if I had to
invest in my education I should invest in proper educational institute where quality education is
given under great environment. After discussing the issue with my father and teachers they
suggested I should study abroad if I want to get quality education that can cope with modern
times. Moreover, I don’t want to waste my time and money for something which is not worthy in
global market I want to be competent in this field, and this can only happen if I study abroad.

Study options other than UK :

The main considerable reason for not choosing to study in Canada as it has extreme Weather
conditions like it snows half the year which is not preferable to me. Conversion rate is high due to
which tuition fee cost more than UK . Though Australia is traditionally known for quality
education, but the ever-increasing congestion in Australia, the conditions are bad which is
pushing international students to outer zone with poor housing conditions and living in the
modern suburbs gets pretty expensive.
Besides, Universities in USA have expensive Tuition fees and the Cost of Living is also very high for
students and the present conditions for international students don’t seem favourable.

this figure?
My salary will depend upon the organization in which I will get a job however; I can expect a plus
in my salary as I would be UK graduate rather than a local graduate. As fresh graduate I will be
able to earn 220,000 PKR to 270,000 Pkr due to my UK qualification. After acquiring some work
experience, I will start to develop apps in free time. As this does not need any company to startup
and I will also be able to apply to highly reputed multinational companies because of my
experience that I will gain after returning to Pakistan. Which promises 300,000 Pkr to 350,000
Pkr. Which will be enough. In my homeland and will provide me luxurious lifestyle. My parent’s
