    Everyone that has had their interview feedback....

    Did you get an email about it, or did you have to go in and check to find out your scores via the website. Just so I know if I should keep looking or not haha :)
  • One final thing before i sign off for tonight - Think about the kinds of questions that could be asked in each competency. For example, for Building Capability, you are most likely to get a question that is around developing skills and knowledge, working collaboratively or communicating with impact :)
  • My wife has an interview but we've not been abroad for about ten years and therefore haven't renewed passport - we are panicking a bit as cant see what else can be taken instead to prove citizenship - any advice appreciated !

    Thanks

    Driving license? Any form me photographic ID and birth certificate, perhaps get it verified by a doctor or other civil servant.

    I would telephone the helpline as soon as possible if you don't have provisional or full driving license though. They will tell you what you can use if its not stated on the forms

    good luck!

    hi

    just got a interview for N.london.

    quick question, you know the Pensions Questionnaire; is this only for internal candidates?

    thanks

    Nah, it's for everyone. If you get the job you'll be in a scheme on day one so they need to know if they need to allocate it to a previous account.

    It actually makes very little sense as an internal candidate, as it seems quite reliant on the fact that you've LEFT the scheme, which I haven't...

    Just a quick question for anyone in the know, For my interview, I have prepared (so far) 1 solid example per competency. These cover most of the bullet points. However, for the points that can't be matched, I have prepared several mini examples that I plan to use to fill the gaps. These mini examples are all in some way related to the solid examples. Is this acceptable?

    I am in same boat. I am going to phone and check, but I am wondering (hoping) if you can use a previous full British Passport to prove nationality - it does not specify current - it verifies nation of birth which would not change would it??

    To use a passport as ID it specifically states that it has to be current but there are alternative options for that one.
