Hi applepie356
Yes they're more or less those questions however the wording may vary slightly.
As long as you have a good few examples in your head you will be able to find a way of making them fit the question.
Good luck.
Yes mate, I cant wait. I'm really looking forward to learning something new.
It's a long process in all. You can wait months between the stages without hearing anything but then at other times it can move quite quickly. Just trust the good people in HR to get it all sorted.
After stage 1 I...
No problem.
I'm due to start training in March. Without the information on this forum and the advice from other users I wouldnt have made it to this point so I'm more than happy to help if I can.
All the effort that you put in, in your own time will make it all worth while when you get offered...
Dots.
It's sort of half circles with dials and numbers around them from what I can remember.
Very similar, just has slightly more detail in it but still basically as straight forward as the practice papers.
All of the tests are basically similar to the ones that you get in the practice paper...
Very good advice from abacus.
I remember straight after the stage 1 assessment a small group talking about how many they completed on the dials test and the ones who had done the fewest seeming to get abit stressed about it all. The truth is you have no idea what the pass mark is or how many...
Good evening Dilksy,
Before you attend just make sure you read over the practice papers that you're given a number of times. This will ensure that you fully understand what is being asked of you. This in turn will ensure that on the day you're fully prepared for each test.
Before attending...
I wouldn't hold your breath on them being in a rush. I thought the same, five months ago...haha.
Hopefully the medicals will be during the first couple of months of next year. Fingers crossed.
Congrats again.
Great news, congratulations mate.
Did they give you any update around the timeframe for the next stages? I heard that the next course will be March but unsure how certain that is.
Hi L.J
They dont offer you a place at the interview. I had my DMI in July and I'm still awaiting a medical date so the process will likely continue for a while after you pass.
I found out the day after the interview by email.
All the best.
Hi mate. Yes stage 2 will be in Watford at the OPC. You will do the computer tests and MMI. It's basically on the High Street and around a 10 minute walk from the train station.
Good luck.
Same to you.
Fingers crossed. I was informed by HR that if all went well with the medical and pre employment checks I would be looking at a course towards the end of the year, so I'm guessing you would be in a similar position.
Hi all.
First post on this forum, however I have been lurking around on it for a while now.
Grafter1900 - I'm in the same position as yourself. I had the DMI on the 13th June, so waiting for a medical date.
Also wanted to thank all of you for the posts on this site as it has helped me to...
