Heya you just need photo ID and proof of national insurance. I had a physical copy but I saw some people getting it from their phones so you should be ok
I had this email and then got an email the same day inviting me to stage 2
Congrats. I have my DMI booked in for Coventry in a few weeks
Good luck with the DMI mate. Hope it all goes well.
Congrats mate, me too. I’m booked in for 31st March. Good luck at stage 2
Me too! What day have you booked?
Thank you bud. And great insight on what to expect from stage one
How long was it between having the stage 1 pass email and the stage 2 invite mate
Hi mate, when do the practice material it states on the TRP 2 it will be dials and cables instead. Is that true and is there much difference?
I got my stage 2 invite just over a week after completing the stage 1 assessments.
Ah me too, see you there!
Hi mate, how long after receiving your stage 1 pass email was it until you received the invite to stage 2?
It was a few days for me
Nevermind just saw this!
I had mine on the Friday and got my pass email on the Monday afternoon. I have heard of people getting them back the same day.
Just found out I got it! Just medical and course date to find out now
Hi, for me it took 10 days after completing stage 1 to get an invite for stage 2. Only got one email and it said something like “We’d like to invite you to stage 2. Use the link below…”
Congratulations! How long was the process for you in total?
Congratulations! Where did you apply?Just found out I got it! Just medical and course date to find out now
That's great! Always disliked that specific part lol. I'm just waiting on the next stage after initial sift, been emailed about waiting for an OPC online assessment. Is it psychometrics after this point, and then the dmi if you pass stage 1 and 2?It’s not
thank you! I applied for Bletchley.
That's correct so it's reading dials to find the correct order of the fault finding (on that test you are allowed to keep the notes you make before starting which I found massively helped me remember the correct sequence to solve it to get the answer).
They check themselves and if you've been invited to sit assessments again you didn't hit their criteria on either all the tests or specific ones.
In the same boat! I have been sent the email for the test to be completed before next Friday. Have you done yours yet ?
I see, so WMT may have a more enhanced standard than the other TOC.
Potentially yes. However they did make a mistake with my OPC results last year, and told me I needed to do them again... Last minute they rang me and told me they made a mistake and I didn't need to attend. So it may be worth asking the question.
Yes from my understanding that is correct. When you get there they will check against your NI number. If you have met WMT standards with some of your tests then you will only have to do the tests you didn’t reach WMT standards on.
No, got the email yesterday. If anyone can shed some light as to what is best to review on these before talking them? Although they appear to me to be situational judgement style so I’m guessing just focus on safety first with a focus on customer service?
I am assuming this too! I don’t want to over think it too much and mess up! But then don’t want to do them too laid back!
There's not really an "enhanced" there's national and then there's whatever each TOC wants out of it's potential candidates.
This is correct. When I say my OPC Stage 1, there was a guy who only had to do x2 of the tests so he just sat outside whilst the rest of us did them. Diffrent TOCs do use different pass marks, I asked the examiner about this. There’s a national standard but different TOCs can require higher marks that they can set at their own discretion.
