Even though people will pass at stage 2. Not every one will get a DMI. Lad on my assessment had passed before but didn't get a DMI due to other people getting the job

This is a long shot but did anyone have their second assessment on Monday 11th in Newcastle. Just wondered how everyone did

I had my assessment in Newcastle yesterday.

They said I got a really high score in the flashing squares test.

I knew I'd struggled in the perception one, I was convinced I'd failed, but I apparently met the national standard, just not TPE's enhanced level.

I also scored really well on the hand coordination test, I was convinced I had screwed that up too.

So, long drive back for me and a long wait for another position to come up.

Thanks for the information about the interviews. Does anyone have a definitive answer regarding the number of positions available at each location?

Some previous posts said Manchester and Liverpool 4 each and York and Newcastle 1 each. Other posts have said 4 positions at York.

That's a lot of interview days if there's only 1 position each for York and Newcastle!

Any suggestion from the person you spoke to that Liverpool interviews would be conducted in Manchester?

Anyone else still in for Liverpool after the OPC?
