When I recieved my invitation for interview, I just rang up the recruitment team who emailed the local LOM, who then emailed me back within 15 minutes saying I could come to his box for a visit at any time. And to just let him know so he could let the signaller on duty know. Contact the...

Wow, congrats man! Nice to hear that someone has done well, and also been very lucky hearing back so quick! Hard work and effort clearly pays off! All the best mate.

Ouch, 9 month from start to finish! The wait for the invite to interview strongly backs up judo chops mates 4 month wait then haha! I’m currently with hire managers for 10 different roles, was starting to feel a little deflated after getting to the 10 week mark - coming from the most impatient...

Out of curiosity... what’s the longest anybody has waited for comms from HR/Hire managers? Got a fair few applications with the hire managers and the furthest one down the line is 10 weeks today, followed by 8 weeks tomorrow. From what I’ve read through this forum is some lucky folks have had...

Ive been waiting 7 weeks today from my “application under consideration for assessment 2” for word about an interview or a refusal. This is a LONG and excruciating process haha! - I’m sure it will be worth it! I do have a fair few apps at this stage... one 7 weeks down the line.. one at 4...

Morning bud, hope you’re well. You now fill in the initial application form and answer 69 yes or no questions and give examples for the ones you can. The assessment centre isn’t part of the process anymore so once you have answered the 69 questions on the application they invite you to do a...

Yeah I’m the same, would take any job to just get a toe in the door! So from the 4-6 applicants that have been narrowed down, they are all put forward to “under consideration for assessment 2” which means they are with the hiring manager.. therefore when his/her availability allows it, the...

Ahh I’m with you, that seems reasonable in all honesty. My “source” also said that the total number of applicants invited for interview is 5, however apparently it can vary depending on the particular manager preference. I must say 5 is quite a small number really when the number of applicants...

Ohh I see, Maybe I have been misinformed? So what makes the difference between a position posted external from internal do you know?

Well done on the interview.. and good luck for it :) What I’m told is that the jobs get offered internally first... and if there is no internal interest then the position is posted externally.. so I’m assuming there are no internal applicants for the externally placed jobs anyways! Out of...

Hi all, hope you are well, brand new to this site! Somebody mentioned answering their NTS questions using the “STAR” method. Can anybody give me an info on what this technique is by any chance? Many thanks
