I figured by going by what others had had emailed back to them that the info given to me about getting outcomes at the weekend or early next week for SE Scotland was probably inaccurate however, just to confirm if there's any others from my region hoping for info in the coming days, I received this today - at least they got back to me to tell me their info was wrong...just going to have to sit tight and hope for the best. Good luck all!

Dear Graham,

Following my reply to you yesterday, I have done some research and found that not all the interviews have taken place as yet. Therefore it is more likely that you will not hear anything till mid to late April at the earliest.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Subject: Update following interview

Dear Sir/Madam,

I interviewed for the position of Executive Officer for the DWP in East/South East Scotland on the 5th March and was advised at the interview that we'd be likely to hear back within two weeks. I have noted my feedback on the CS website although I have yet to hear a final outcome. Can you confirm when I am likely to hear whether I've been successful or not, please?

Many thanks
Graham

Did they happen to mention which April they were going to get responses out :mad:. I hope it was 2012 but I wouldn't bank on it.

Been a bit of a farce when some areas have been finished interviews for three weeks and some are still doind them. I'll be taking my bleeding pension before I get a reply:eek:.

My point about this really is that some areas only have applicants from their own area and the adjoining area, such as Cornwall and Devon... or Tyne and Wear/Northumberland and Durham. Why can't the Cornish results (or indeed Tyne and Wear) be given if they don't impact on any other area?

Hi Folks,

Just wondering if anyone can tell me how long it should take to receive interview feedback as some on this forum received scores on the day of interview (17th March) or a few days later I'm still waiting..:(

Does anyone know whether it is done alphabetically or in score order (highest to lowest)?

Thanks for your question.

Some areas have posted interview scores within hours whereas some areas (annoyingly to many) have waited for weeks before posting. There is no score order or alphabetical listings when it comes to feedback. Your details will be viewable on the feedback section of your application page.

I think due to the delays in completing this process, pressure is being exerted on the areas that are lagging behind in finalising their interviews. Hopefully this will mean that you will not have too long to wait for your results.

Good luck with them.

Hi all.

For those of you still awaiting interview, can you give the rest of us an idea when your interviews have been booked for? This is just to help see where the process is and when we may eventually get a result one way or the other.

If someone has an interview booked for April 7th say, we know not to expect anything until well after Easter.

Thanks for that

I can't help but wonder why my scores have not been posted when others interviewed on the same day and district as me have had scores back. I'll have to be more patient - no news is good news...Hopefully !

I have mine for 27th for NW and from what I can remember there were dates available up to April 5th.

Hi Holly

I also had my interview on 17th for East London and have not yet received feedback.
Good Luck

If that's the case then it will be after Easter before we hear anything.

This is quite ridiculous when you consider applications closed 8 weeks ago.

I'm lucky; I'm in work. I feel for those who are desperately trying to get into work. What a farce...and so say all of us, eh?

ps; Good luck for Tuesday
