I have been following this thread for many weeks, but only just got around to joining in! I am waiting for news on S E Wales & scored 33 points at interview.
I'm just hoping this is enough to get an offer as this whole experience has aged me at least 10 years! :eek:

Hi Bosscat, I'm waiting on SE Wales too. Got 32 at interview so dont really know if thats good or bad, the waiting is killing me! What offices are you hoping for?

OMG, i have only just found this forum & sooooo wish i had found it earlier.

I have been going through the recruitment process hell on my own, thought i was the only one that's life was consumed by it, lol!

Cant believe it has taken so long with no comms until the day before yesterday! thought they had forgotten all about us!!

Had my interview on 22 Feb & obv knew my results the week later so knew i had done well but christ not as well as some of you lot! you must have been excellent in your interviews, i had really good examples (currently a civil servant in a different department as an AO) & still only scored 36, so now i am not holding my breath, looking at all your scores!!

I have applied for Devon & Cornwall at only 2 offices, but i havent seen any posts from this area so i may be lucky!!!!

Congrats to all of you that have offers, i hope i hear tomorrow as i dont know how much more of this stress i can take!! xx

Hi, I also applied for Devon and Cornwall and get exactly the same score as you my interview was on the 3rd of march. Not heard anything back yet . what office did you want to work in?

Bosscat

Hi Parfitme, I'm pretty flexible on offices within reason:) Have car - will travel & all that.
Would be well chuffed with an offer........then worry about distances afterwards
What about you? are you already a cs or totally external?

parfittme

Hi Bosscat
I'm external but did 2 years as AO FTA. I was on waiting list for EO at the same time but nothing came of it. Would love to get back into DWP (must be mad!). I would really like Merthyr tydfil or Cardiff due to transport but will consider one or two others within reason.

Oh well, as excpected I got my knock back email today.
Cheerio, and I wish you all well with your appointments.
Glad it's all over tbh xx

Bosscat

Looking at the offers made today in Glasgow our scores are comparible ? So maybe tomorrow will bring some positive news ???

I'm waiting on South East Wales too. I was an AO until just over two weeks ago when my much extended FTA contract became...erm...unextended. Fingers crossed for everyone.

Hi welshjoe, if you don't mind me asking what did you score at interview? just sussing out the competition

welshjoe27

Oh I'm out for the count on 28 mate, I've accepted it, I just want to know for definite. My sift scores were MUCH higher but I guess I just had an unlucky day. I applied for another district too and was hoping at the beginning that I would have two interviews but alas, it never happened. All I can hope for is that apart from the exceptions on here, other people's scores were in the lower regions.

Bosscat

I'm pretty sure one of the Glasgow guys got an offer today with 28 so don't count yourself out.
'it aint over till its over' :cool:
