Hello everyone,

I need some help, which I would be very grateful for.

My local council, here in the UK, are looking to employ someone who they will train, as well as send the successful candidate to a local college/university to gain HNC level in Information Communications Technology. This is a fully working position in that the candidate will be working normal office hours when in work.

(I apologize to Americans, I'm not fully aware what a HNC is equivalent to in the states)
Further,
this is more than a perfect opportunity and position for me to finally start working towards what I want to do, I am very eager to get this position and need help with a possible interview in the future.
I would love to hear from anyone who was looking to get employment in a similar role (IT).

From this I'd really appreciate if you could jot down any question you were asked or any questions you feel would be asked of me. As I said, I am excited at the prospect working there and would like to have a few answers in mind for any questions asked.

Here is an example of a question I feel will be asked.

Why do you want to become an ICT officer
(I am able to answer this one but posted just as an example :))

Many thanks and sorry for the long post.
