Interviews at the Job Centre?
I've applied for a job (through Totaljobs), and they are holding interviews at the Job Centre Plus.
Just out of interest (and fear!) - do they have facilities at these centres for testing computer skills etc. such as graphic design programs?
Basically I am a graphic designer, and I do not know what software or platform (PC/Mac) they use (I have asked but no response). If they were to do some sort of test, and use software I don't normally use, I'd be at a serious disadvantage - if I knew, I'd do a crash course and wing it!
Do you think it's likely they'd do something like that there?

Hi squarebear
They have asked that I bring in a portfolio and they said "Beforehand we will provide you with a brief in which we will request that a short task is to be completed before the interview."
Very vague. Been a long time since I've been for an interview so it could be something basic like spelling / grammar but I just don't know. I've been to interviews before where they give you a brief software test. They never mentioned their software / platform in the job description.
