Did you keep in contact? did they send updates? or was it just out of the blue? Congratulations!

My assessment was on a Friday and I had the response by the following Tuesday. Right so from what I understand it is a case of luck in your particular area? If vacancies become available you have a good chance but if they don't then your unlikely to be contacted. Come to think of it at my...

Any information about the talent pool at Northern? I attended interview and assesment, in an email I was told that I had met the required standard at assesment but due to the high volume of success at the assesment centre I was chosen to be placed in the talent pool rather than start the...
