Grow up - it may help
At 21 you may not understand what kind of stress people are under on this particular thread but pls refrain from silly comments.
A lot of things may depend on people on here getting this job, their whole lives may change, they may have a lot of commitments - both financial and family wise so.... no need for being silly.0 -
Well, Arthound is clearly a prat, as was that nauseating WUM Wanda, and a few others whom I've probably by now forgotten. So no worries - we're clear! And congrats to all with ints, though nothing from deepest darkest Sarf Lahndan so far. Apart from much Guinness, that is, and a few good jokes about Action for Embezzlement (A4e).
Regarding literacy or its lack among JCP employees, I have no doubt that those among you who have worked already in the sweaty hellhole will concur when I say that hardly anyone can spell their own name, let alone anyone else's. That being the case, you can see why they won't give a hoot if your own presentations as to competency aren't as Fowler would have liked.
So toodle pip! Or poodle tip if you like a Spoonerism or two. I'm off to beddy byes.0 -
Oh sod off you boring tw*t.
(edit: the post above, by wandafish, has been removed either through moderation or guilt, and has left this one hanging a bit. But I'll leave it here as a reminder for the WUMs.)0 -
Yeah that's really helpful vwgirl... But isn't it odd how you're one of the first to have an interview and just so happen to be sharing your experiences? These questions should clear things up:
What building was the interview in?
Did either of the 3 on the panel have a red tie?
What was the 18th word the panel said to you?
How do we know you're not trying to lull people into a false sense of security so they only focus on 5 examples?
I think you're a WUM. People have been fooled by you but i've just outed you. I can't wait for the gang of Internet bullies to jump on you and fire abuse at you. You disgust me.
Hi Wanda, all that I asked you was what office in Birmingham you had your interview at simply because I know that Birmingham havent started interviewing yet so just wondered how. Also I asked about the test as I was informed by someone on the panel that there were no more tests!! - If it was me I was just tell people what office, format of the test etc - certainly not internet bullying.0 -

I do believe that Wanda has finally shown her true colours...0 -

The advice VW Girl has given, be it truth or lie, is harmless. There are 5 competencies, we already know that and it is a competency based interview. However, you have stated that there is a test and until now, you are the only one who have said it. Reading your thread it seems that you are only interested in stirring the forum to enjoy the replies. This is my first response to your thread and hopefully the last:mad:
BTW, what is a WUM? I also do like to apologise in advance for any grammatical mistakes, spelling mistakes, sentence fragmentation etc I may have made, to all the "Gurus" in the forum.0 -

WUM = Wind up Merchant, basically a politically correct term for a troll!!
WandaFish is a troll who should crawl back under his/her stone.0 -
