    The link says that "management will use the exercise to create waiting lists to enable them to recruit later in the year IF THE NEED ARISES" so am I write in assuming that our applications could be worthless.

    Btw forgive me for being a bit dippy but what the hell does FTA mean in the scripts?

    Fixed Term Appointment

    I have a feeling it was somewhere on the first page (info) of the actual test.. as definitely seen it but can not find it in any of the emails I got from them (3 in total). About a paper version of the test at interview stage I mean.

    Probably need the minimum score in the test and between 4-6 on each of the competencies (which are graded 0-9).

    Thanks,

    I don't really want to be waiting 2 months to be told whether I've been accepted or rejected... What are the likely timescales involved in getting a reply back?
