My interview is rapidly approaching and I wasted two hours of prep time finding that damn birth certificate! Why they need that and a passport... I need to work out some examples, I narrowly missed another job recently as I just couldn't find an example even after padding for a minute or two!

Sometimes the answer is there but getting the right wirds make it difficult... I had my answers and notes but didn't use them

Keep prepping and you'll be fine

Thanks, after making some notes I'm not that hopeful, but you never know.

Has anyone else received their feedback? If so is it online or comes via letter?
Thanks

Hi, thank you for your quick reply. Any idea how long it takes? I understand it can vary from site to site but approximately..

Cheers

It can take a few weeks or a few months... They seem to enjoy dragging it out so we feel tourtured lol!!

The panel I interviewed with on last week said that I would get my results from the interview in 10-14 days but I'm expecting it to be longer!!

I had my interview for this today. In my area, the interviews are running until the end of the week.


Everyone should be notified at the same time, depending on when the interviews finish. They score all the interviews and put all applicants in order of merit. Then all the info is submitted internally so we are notified via Civil Service Jobs.


One thing I was told today- pick as many Jobcentre locations as possible to increase the chances of a job offer. Even if you are successful at interview stage, if there are no positions at the Jobcentres chosen, you are automatically put on the reserve list for 6 months.

I emailed the person managing recruitment in East Anglia. They at least (don't know about other regions obviously) are hoping to inform everyone of their outcome "early next week".

Hi there,

How did you manage to find the email id of that person. I haven't heard anything back either been over a month now. Surely no news is a good new. Do they provide any contact details anywhere? Fingers crossed for you.
