    Thankyou recent posters. It really is poor form to mess around on this sort of subject. I'm worried enough about Monday after not experiencing such a formal interview in two decades, alongside REALLY wanting this job. I know who's posts sound genuine and shall turn a blind eye to childish attention seekers. Now I have cider to drink and competancies to rehearse. Peace :-)

    Agreed - have some cider and relax this evening - you can look at your competancies over the weekend . On Sunday evening have a bath and relax again - you are going to be fine on Monday. (And ignore anyone whose name begins with 'wanda' and ends with 'fish' ;))

    You certainly don't have to memorise your competencies, you can take as many notes and paperwork in with you as you like and are welcome to refer to them as you need to. You probably should look again at your comps depending on what socre you got as they'll be looking to fill the gaps. You maybe asked for more examples though, probably an example of where something hasn't gone as expected and how you managed it is a popular one.

    Thanks. I'm sure it will be fine.

    I have a "disturb or die" sign ready to go up on the door Sunday. Revise, bath, nails, early night. Fingers crossed!

    For everyone waiting in this area they are going on between tomorrow & monday (bulk tomorrow)
    Management are working overtime specially to get them on.... I know this 100% :D

    I'm thinking that my Staffs/Shrops scores should just default to 1s because it's my B'ham scores which count. Can't understand why it still says 'on hold' when this is the case.:undecided

    For civil servant who applied internal and external vacancies both, there would be two chances ,Two district would count separately. if u r existing sc employee that explains it.
