    I have apps into East and North London, scores from North London but no further response. Similar scores as some who have interviews with East London, but nothing from them either. Wondering if the East London interviews are initially going out to people with single apps in??? Who knows how this system works?? Not sure if the DWP do either!:rotfl:

    Interesting point - my friend who got an interview yesterday 1400 applied only to East London. I have apps. in for E.London & Essex, with E.London being home-base.

    I just received an email inviting me to an interview for B'ham! Yay! Soooo excited! Booked it for 2wks time to give me time to prep like mad.
    Has anybody else heard? :j

    Me too! I booked it for the 5th.

    Good luck.

    I can't open any of the documents though.

    Emails for East London started getting out yesterday. Some on this forum have already booked interviews.
    See previous posts.

    Hi Quo Vadis, I have been looking at the posts with E.London applicants booking interview slots, then found out about friend getting interview when the posters here did. My test scores are (slightly) higher than my friend's, we have the same last name, but I have no news. Afraid all slots will be booked and I'll be left behind. Sob.

    E.London

    I got 58% on my test, haven't heard anything yet, although some of my friends have received interview emails.

    Has anyone with similar % got interview emails in E.London??

    My surname begins with H. And I also only applied for E. London
  • hi all,

    update from me, no news lol. ive applied for the south london area. 97% percentile and 4,4,5,5,4 on comps. still says under review.

    on a side note my friend who applied for the east london area recieved an email last night inviting him for an interview, so gd luck to my boy. funny thing is he hasnt even recieved feedback on his comps yet.

    The logic behind this recruitment process is really baffling lol. well, still keeping my fingers crossed for my invite to interview.

    ive seen alot of movement on the birmingham and east london fronts, anyone in the same bout as me and waiting for south london interview invites??

    Hi everyone had my interview yesterday and have checked review application today and it says this :


    Applicant Status: Scheduled for 1st interview
    You are now scheduled to attend the next selection event.

    Please make sure that you are available at least twenty minutes before your scheduled slot.


    Does anyone know what this means?

    Or when I can expect to know if I have passed interview?

    Thanks x

    gettingready, thank you. The point about single apps. raised earlier might be true then - priority interview slots for them. Wow, monogamy in applications counts! Sorry, the entire process is bizarre yet stressful & perhaps my flippancy may not be helpful.
