    Well remembered devilot :)

    I applied to six districts in total. As far apart as North Scotland and North London.

    I know it sounds mad on the face of it, but I live on an Island with one Jobcentre. If I am offered a post anywhere else in my current district, I'll have to relocate to take up the job. If I have to move back to the mainland, then my logic is that it makes no difference how far I move!

    Following this logic, I applied to all the places where my wife and I have either lived in the past or have friends who would help us settle in.

    As I say, it sounds mad, and probably is, but well see where it leads...:cool:

    Far from being mad, I think it's great, you have to go where the work is. :)

    I have had 2 out of 4 back and the comps for the one were carried over to the second although I did the test for each.

    As just stated London scores are starting to filter through.

    Just got mine for West London. A bit lower than expected but feedback is decent and there are no '3s' so fingers crossed I get an interview and good luck to everyone on here.
  • Don't know whats going on in W of Scotland coz there certainly doesn't seem to be any sifting going on.
    There has been some response from other parts od scotland - hasn't there??

    Hey have u clicked on feedback at the bottom left of the screen scores are in there

    Hi Sweetsarah2012,

    Yeah I've clicked on feedback but it still says 'your application is awaiting review'... I don't get it because surely I should have my competency scores before I get invited to interview?

    Nit that I'm complaining, I'm delighted to have an interview, but knowing how well my competencies scored will not only help me prep for my face to face interview but also stop me from worrying that this is somesort of error and feeling paranoid that I haven't actually got through.

    Or, could this be something to do with the number if applicants in my area perhaps?

    I wish the recruitment line was open today!
