I got 7,7,4,7,4.
Feedback comments do say that for the '4' score there is evidence in my other examples so this will be really useful if I get an interview because you are allowed to use the same example for another competence.
Fingers crossed!
Well done.0 -

I must have picked 5 of the slowest regions to apply to, 2 of them are showing as on hold but none of them are yet showing any competency scores. Oh well, just have to keep checking.0

I applied to Birmingham after Black Country but before Staff/Shrops.
Surprised to get B'ham results first. Guess there is no real 'order'.
I would imagine that the other districts should give the same scores too - but this doesn't seem to be the case does it?
Still a waiting game to see if I'm successful for interview. I'll be happy even if I only get through with one of my applications.
Good luck!0 -
Dr who you should phone the recruitment line that's absolutely ridiculous if your gettin different scores for the same thing.... Problem is you don't want them to take your lower score or you don't want them to think your being a t*** to them.
As for the forms to help with competencies.... The only one I could find was a adobe file which had the five competencies in a table with bullet points but I could not find the other document what was posted earlier0 -

London? I applied for all 4 regions and none of them have changed at all since I sent them off a decade ago, no on hold and no competency scores.0 -

The other document you get by following links from the job description in the application. It wasn't clear in my opinion, which is probably why they're sifting a lot more apps to drill down to passable competency statements.
Ah well, not long to wait now.0 -

I think I must have the same sifters as you. Have applied to 4 areas 2 saying on hold 2 saying test complete non saying sift feedback. Agh!0
