When did you hear??

QUOTE="yomper11, post: 4150287, member: 70363"]I took the test last week and passed, I looked at each question and the four answers and I believe, I may be wrong that all the answers are bad, they are designed to show the worst/ most dishonest course of action through to the least dishonest/ worst situation.

I then answered based on that criteria. I think the various TOC' s are after people that adhere to rules and place customer service and honesty above all else.

I've passed this twice now, so, for me it works.

Hope that helps,

Sorry to hear you didn't make it.

Hi thanks for the response,
I did the answers the same way you described, being the most humble and honest chooses 1st, even though still they were wrong,
I guess the thing about my test was that I couldn't complete it on time, doing the last two questions, I could have reached the benchmark.
And you mentioned you did the test twice.?
You mean you applied last year and did it, and then now as well.?
And were they the same questions.?

Regards

Fair enough mate, Good luck for it! Please do let us know how it goes. I don't think it will be too difficult as they did not tell us what to revise so will just have to go with the flow.

Hi! Has anyone got result for Maths and English test yet? I received an email saying it will be an apprenticeship Scheme and whether am I interested or not after 2 days of my assessment. Assessor told us we should get our result within couple of days after test if we pass. Has anyone else got anything different or similar outcome? Would be much appreciated if you share your thought as its bit confusing for me. Thanks for your time ladies and gents. Cheers.

You done your assessment yesterday, right? How did you find it? What kind of questions were there?
Hey Naz
I had to postpone it to next batch, but yeah its over and done now.

It was all basic and english. Did not even feel like it was an asseasment to be honest, was more like practise questiom, just to see what level you are on.

Hi! Max,
Thanks for your response. I am not sure which level I was in. If we haven't passed, they shouldn't ask us about whether we would be interested for apprenticeship after having assessment. I replied to their email already. Let's see. Is there anyone who has not attended at the assessment but got the same email? If not, then I would say we have passed Any update I will have, will share here. Thanks.

Were the english and maths questions multi choice?

Thanks.
Hi Yomper,
No. But it's easy. When is your assessment? Have you got any email from them saying it will be apprenticeship and whether you are interested or not? Thanks and good luck.
Cheers.

I dont think there is any results as such since is not a pass or a fail. it's just so they know where u are in this subjects so they know what they can focus on on your apprenticeship if you get the job

Thanks for your response. Does it mean everyone who attended the assessment, will progress to next level? Good for us then but assessor told us that if we pass this level, we would be invited for interview and he didn't know that how much we needed to score though. Good luck with us.
