National health service Hello

I have an interview at the NHS for an Executive Assistant position. What kind of questions will I be expected to answer as this is my first Executive Assistant interview so I am trying to determine what kind of technical questions and competency based questions the interviewers will ask.

Generally in your first interview for that role they will ask a lot of getting to know you type questions and they will also ask you about your experience. They don't ask a lot of super technical questions for an executive assistant role unless its a more specialized assistant type role.

Does it look bad in my resume to resign after less than a year at a job? writing here the time I’ve spent at each company since graduating college:

- went back to company 1 (it had grown exponentially after 2 years so came back at higher position) (resigned after 1 year to join a startup at director level)
