    As I said most districts are sifting comps but not all, as far as I understand it if you are offered an interview in 1 district then it serves as an interview for all the rest.

    I suspect that is why when comps have been marked by 1 district and another sifter from another district is sees them they have in some cases carrying over results.

    As I only know about how districts I applied to are sifting I honestly couldn't tell you, but my personal opinion is yes that is why you haven't had feedback and likely wont.

    Thank you :o

    I've just got my results in north london - 4,4,4,4,5 - seriously disappointed in the results. im out of the running with those scores.

    Sweetsarah2012 got the exact same score as you and secured an interview, I don't think it was for a London region but nonetheless - don't count yourself out, I'm definitely not and I got a similar score (3x5, 2x4) :beer:

    Chara, me too! I wish they would update us just a little. I've called the helpline but they just keep telling me the same thing. I understand that they have thousands of applications to go through but I just wish I had some idea of my chances. The suspense is killing me.

    Which area have you applied to, if you don't mind me asking?
    I see you have received an invitation for interview today, well done. :j

    Mine is still awaiting review, the longer it goes on the more I think they have found enough for interview and will just fail the rest.

    I would rather not say which area yet, I may wish to vent about them at some point. :o



    General question: What email address sends the interview emails? Is it the workforce management team? I want to check my inbox very carefully, just in case.....
  • Don't worry about poor scores, I've a friend who used to always fail these and now she"s a senior manager at dwp she was always competent but didn't know about writing the statements correctly until sent for training now does them easily. Just because you were scored low doesn't mean you're stupid or less competent just means you need to brush up on statement writing. My other friend got 5 and 7s and may get an interview.

    Hello, those were exactly same as my scores and I got an interview today so don't think it's game over yet. Good luck :)
