    Yea starting 25th, handed notice in last week,had to give some organisation for getting my replacement. Bit of a bold move on my part but can't see any issues with my security. I am squeaky clean lol

    Not sure to be honest,when she said security clearance rather than disclosure thinking may be their own checks, was told should be this week. I technically finish tues 19th so really hoping for news soon. Cant wait to get started.

    what to wear to SCAAT/GBT assesment?

    Definitely suit all the way. With the exception of the medical i wore a suit to every stage of my process as each stage there is every chance of a member of the company you will meet for the first time.

    Had my medical today, by far the easiest bit lol. All went well, just waiting on the results of the urine test, not worried at all about that, can't wait to get the formal offer and officially hand in my notice :D
