Has anybody applied for this? Currently on the website with the location of Tweedbank. However the closing date keeps being put back again and again. Currently the end of January now.

Anyone know what's going on?

(I haven't applied btw, just interested)

No idea whats happening although I was in Glasgow for the assessment on the 6th and just got word back earlier this week that I've passed.
They said the interviews would be in December but times running out for that.

Maybe they are struggling to get enough passes for holding the interviews.

Can I ask what date you both had your assessments?
I'm still waiting on a date for an interview.

I've not had any emails since the assessment but when I log in my status now says successful at part assessment.
Doesn't look good if I've not heard anything by now :(

The guy I sat with on the train home recieved a letter a couple of days after the assessment saying he had failed on the concentration tests and his status was unsuccessful at assessment.
Ive not had any emails or anything through the post so I assume I have passes the first part of the assessment. They didn't do the reaction tests on the day, we were told that would be next time for those that pass the first part.
Think I might email them for some clarification.

I must have passed all test on assessment; mechanical comp, glop test, bourbon, dails. My status showed successful at part assessment too. Received my interview date very soon after that. I would give it a little while before contacting them as they are probably very busy with the strikes at the moment.
