manual assessment at Jag/Land Rover

alright_dave

Very well thank you, I've always been active and had active jobs, It's the way I like to be, so it suits me down to the ground. The jobs are busy and the day goes fast. As long as you just do your job well and you turn up on time, you'll be left alone.

Nice to hear. Glad it is going well for you. Hopefully we will be as lucky as you and they will take some more on.

Hi guys!

What is going on at the moment then? Seem's a bit strange as I have been given an interview tomorrow but it looks like all the jobs have been filled.

Any advice would be great regarding what's going on and the final stage interview!

I completed the online assessment stage on 24/09/2012 and received an email saying 'Due to the overwhelming response the next phase in the process is currently on hold. As soon as we have confirmation of when the programme is re-opening we will contact you.'

I then received an email (with about 100 other email addresses) from manpower on 02/01/2013 saying that they had tried to contact me but were unsuccessful and they would like to invite me to a manual assessment, along with a contact number.

I phoned the number and booked a manual assessment for the 09/01/2013. Attended and completed both tasks (Brake peddle assembly and magnet placement test) within the allocated times, also completed the online assessment again.

The following day (10/01/2013) i received a call from a manpower employee inviting me for a interview, which was on the 14/01/2013 at 08:30. I attended the interview.

The following day i received this email

Haven't heard anything since, iv'e phoned manpower, the woman on the phone said that they have stopped recruiting for Castle Bromwich and are waiting on start dates for Soulihull.

So unsure how long the wait will be at the moment, which is a bit frustrating.

Hope this helps, also thanks to all that have posted in this thread.

Hi, that's exactly the same as what happened to me but I've been advised to be patient for a start date basically.

They are hoping to open more positions. So I guess everyone else who was successful will get a start date (hopefully)

I sincerely hope so!!

You would hope so. If there are no jobs then why would they still be interviewing this week?

isdnjonny

there will be jobs but not in the numbers seen earlier in the year castle brom is reducing xf build numbers labour involved in build stages will go to other parts of the plant and to land rover , they are waiting to see how many are sent . but there are dropouts every week my advice is if you available and have passed all stages ring often if i left today they would replace me within hours so its about right time right place
