    SCAAT test Assessment

    Maths test just do as much as you can - I only did about 18 questions despite there being many more pages left in the book and still passed. So long as you get the answers right with what you do, you don't have to answer all the questions. Its a long day but the tests themselves are not...

    SCAAT test Assessment

    As said its in booklet. Numerical is very basic maths, when I did it it was like ? + 15 = 52 for example, you just fill the question marks for the entire test and it's addition, subtraction, division and multiplication. MiNi has described the tests well. With the verbal communication try to take...

    Underground CSA full time

    Smart casual should be fine, I wore skirt and blouse nothing fancy. As long as you wear smart shoes/trousers/shirt I don't think you need to be suited and booted for first assessment. But all down to you of course.

    SWR Commercial Guard - Medical date set!!

I would really like the job and considering applying again at a later date, just a few things to consider...hope you get on well...

    I think it's just a copy for us to keep. I'm sure I ticked a box or something saying I wanted a paper copy for myself that's why I got it. They will send DBS straight to TfL as well.

    Finding common ground with others.

    Well of course people will have opposing views on some things and that's fine so long as your common ground is similar at the core. I want to be surrounded by people in life who I can relate to and have similar values to my own. No point in wasting time with those I can't see eye to eye with. I...

    Poll: Potential General Election: who are you voting for?

    Well BJ is completely toxic and he's got a cabinet of toxic people who should be no where near the Cabinet. If you think Johnson is going to get a sane Brexit outcome, you are out of your mind. It's not possible. He doesn't have a realistic strategy. The Conservative Party has already been...
