1Question

Tell me about a time you identified an error in a client record before it caused a problem — what did you do?

Situation: During a routine audit of client files ahead of a quarterly review cycle at my previous firm, I noticed that a pension transfer value for one client had been recorded against the wrong policy number — a transposition error made during a busy new business period. Task: I needed to correct the record before the adviser used it in a client meeting scheduled for the following morning. Action: I cross-referenced the original provider confirmation letter, updated the CRM entry, flagged the discrepancy to the compliance officer, and emailed the adviser with a corrected valuation summary by close of business. Result: The meeting proceeded without issue, the client received accurate information, and I introduced a double-entry verification step that reduced similar errors by an estimated 80% over the next six months.
2Question

Describe a situation where you had to manage urgent requests from multiple advisers simultaneously. How did you prioritise?

Situation: On a particularly busy Monday morning, three advisers simultaneously requested client packs — one for a same-day meeting, one for the following day, and one for a new business submission with a provider deadline of 5 pm. Task: I had to deliver all three without compromising accuracy or missing any deadline. Action: I triaged by hard deadline first, completing the provider submission documents within 90 minutes, then assembled the same-day meeting pack using pre-prepared valuation templates, and finally prepared the next-day pack in the afternoon. I communicated realistic timelines to each adviser upfront so expectations were managed. Result: All three deliverables were completed on time, the new business application was submitted with two hours to spare, and one adviser specifically noted the quality of the meeting pack in the team's weekly feedback.
