nope still "awaiting shortlisting"

I am imagine, im either on a maybe list and they want to see how the yes pile get on at assesment or interview before i get a chance. or...

they havent actually made a start on Brighton applicants yet.

I wish they would let me know either way though..

Thanks, I realised you applied for the trainee drivers job I just wondered what depot. I emailed FCC careers today again to find out what was happening. They said " we received over 1000 applications for these positions and recruitment is still ongoing as a result. Please keep an eye on your Application Submitted as this is where we will update the status of your application".

So if you havent heard and are still waiting this is what is going on!

Hi congratulations can I. Ask what area you applied for I know they advertised for various areas.Not sure what areas they have sorted first.The advise I can give buy your self the game Bop It and concentrate on the dots you can not afford to miss to many and you can not take your time either.Good luck!

I just passed the first assessment at mwb, now have to attend watford for the co-ordination test on monday :)

Passed co-ordination test, interview next tuesday... :D
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
Another game that I had played that reminded me of the co-ordination test is airport mania it is a time management game where you have to manae a few things at once, get used to these type of games then you will be better prepared for the test :)
