    I'm struggling to understand what you want to know as you've included several sentences in one, if your already on the waiting list and have been told you've passed the tests and interview I don't believe you'll receive the actual scores (you certainly won't for the interview). If you are on the waiting list its because they cannot physically employ you until they have done the relevant security checks and have a training place available for you.

    Hope that helps but if you needed to know something else you'll need to be a bit clearer.

  • You should receive your test scores in the post if you've passed. Retain them so if you apply for another DWP post in the next 6 months, you won't need to resit the tests.

    To the OP, is that really your level of literacy?
