Hi mate, I have applied around the same time as you but for Newcastle area. How are you getting on? I received confirmation of passing the two tests online, that was a fair few days ago now though and waiting for any further updates.

 

[NWLad]

Good luck
Exactly the same as you.
I’ve passed the two online tests and I’m just waiting now to see what happens. It’s a long wait.

May I ask what the qualified salary is, assuming it’s been stated?

Feels like forever, when it's really only been a few days! Best of luck to you too

Mine was two weeks ago that I was told I had passed the online assessments. I’m hoping to hear very soon.
Keep me updated with your progress

No mate, nothing yet

Any of you heard anything back yet? I'm in the same position, got email on the 10th June saying I'd passed the online assessments but nothing since then.

No, not yet. Still a waiting game.

What area have you applied for?

Confirmation I had passed the tests on 20th May, on 28th June I received an update that my application had been passed to the recruitment team for screening. Just today I have received an invite for an interview which is now scheduled for a couple of weeks time.

Speaking to NWLad a few days ago, we are both sure there are certain times of the year where they aim to have induction days (possibly North East in August and North West in September) which would match up to my recent activity.

It feels like an an eternity when you're keen for good news, keeping my fingers crossed for you AlphaJack!

Courses start all the time, often within a week or two - there's no hanging around for induction days.

Yeah though one lad had passed his tests and then was invited to an interview within a couple of weeks I think it was. Timescales seem to vary a lot, hope you hear back soon!

Thanks, very nervous even though the interview isn't for a couple of weeks yet, will let you know how I get on.
