The Kings Cross question threw me too much to ask about any talent pools....

Rob. Check your pm's. I think we could help each other. 8-)

Where have you both heard it could be March? The vacancy details page on the website has always stated May and still does? Have you both applied for Bedford or Blackfriars?

Ring the OPC and they will give you feedback on your MMI whether you passed or failed. Don't think you would have to do any tests again if you'd passed them all but I think it is one life gone. May be wrong though. Sorry to hear your disappointing news, stay positive and give it another bash.

This forum and other various blogs available on the net for free are all you need to go through the assessment process. The kind people on here put more than enough information out there to acquaint yourself with what to expect. The amount of external applicants who get through is proof enough...

I wasn't too confident after coming out of the MMI especially after my interview only lasting an hour and everyone else's about 1 and a half hours. But I got the email today saying I'm through to the last stage, the DM interview so if you haven't heard yet, hang in there. As for advice...

Thanks to you both for the replies. Well done to you both on getting through it. Nice to hear that going outside the lines many times isn't necessarily a disaster. Probably the test that I'm not looking forward to and cheers for the heads up on the controller, I'll look out for it! :cool:

Well done everyone who was successful this week. A lot of nervous people but ultimately also unexpectedly a lot of happy people through to Watford. See you there :cool:

Probably sending them alphabetically, I'm an A :D

Assessment centre booking email just arrived. Going ahead on 14,15 or 16 of January 8-)

Thanks for that offer Rob, I will take you up on it if I get that far. Had the email today to say the phone interview went well and to wait for 1st assessment instructions so it's still possible. You hardly qualify as a numpty if you got that far mate! Keep your chin up, stay positive and...

Not sure. Was on the phone for 15 minutes and it was mainly concentrated on customer service. I felt like I was repeating myself a lot of the time tbh. The ladies questions seemed to be the same but phrased in a different way. In fact I'm sure she asked the same question the same way a...

I did it Wednesday night and got the email titled "We'd love to speak to you" on Thursday afternoon. Hope you still get some good news, it's not easy to predict or obvious that they use some chronological order to get in touch with people so keep your fingers crossed mate :|
