Hi,
I got a working holidaymaker visa, but not sure what they gonna ask u in interview as mine was given without interview.

Just make sure u have plans as soon as your 2 year period under holidaymaker scheme ends. I showed them that I was a permanent lecturer at an Australian offshore university in Malaysia. (Although I did not say that I was going to take leave).

Also, make sure you have sufficient funds, show that you know where you will stay when you go to England, show that you know about the costs involved in living - accommodation, cost of loving. As for cost of living, u could get it from university websites. Example, if u wanted to live in Leeds, look up the university of leeds who will give u a breakdown on living in Leeds.

I hope this helps. I am not sure where u r from, but most WHM visas are issued to Australia, New Zealand and Canada, and also Malaysia and Singapore. So, u really need to convince them that u gonna return - dont leave a doubt in their minds.

Cheers and good luck
Sashi
