  • Hi everyone,

    I have my manual assessment tomorrow. I am very excited and hope it goes well.

    I have been reading through the forum and people have said that you can score points from some questions at the end of the assessment, can anyone tell me more about this and also any tips on the manual assessment.

    Thanks,
    Rav

    The questions at the end of the manual assessment are to think of 5 (IIRC) changes to the process to improve it and make it easier/faster.

    Ah ok, thanks for the reply. Is there any tips for the assessment or just to follow the instructions carefully ??

    Basically yes ;).

    Try not to let the nerves get the better of you and pay close attention to the demonstration.

    Good luck.

    Improvements to the process, how things are laid out, tooling improvements. Things like that.
  • Hi Ruby.. Yeah, i would declare it in the interview. As far as i know they cant discriminate against criminal records anymore, i would take the advise offered by Twister. Although i'm sure you might have answered a question somewhere already about previous convictions, was there a question before the online assessment bout it? cant remember!!
    Declare it and Best of luck mate.

    thanks sticky and twister took your advice spent an hour filling forms in before interveiw, went into interveiw told then i had an unspent conviction from 24years ago guess what i had my interveiw terminated so much for rehabiltation good luck guys and thanks for replying back to site work for the last 21years where nobody is worried about your past.

    That's unfortunate, but in a way, I suppose better it came to light now and not a couple of months down the line when/if you got the job as they would have sacked you, which could have lead to awkward questions for any other jobs you applied for.

    How can you have an unspent conviction from 24 years ago? I thought all convictions are spent after 5/6 years.
