How was it

I really enjoyed it, and it was great to work in teams with the other applicants. I thought every one had their own skills and points of merit.

Goodness knows if I was what they were looking for - perhaps I was a bit too enthusiastic but that is my personality. I get along with everyone and give 100% in whatever is asked of me

We should get an update next week

Sadly (for me, anyway) I bombed out after the assessment day on Wednesday. It was really tough, which I guess is reassuring given the importance of the role.

Congratulations to those who made it through. Myrtle3000, if you're who I think you are, we worked in the same group on a couple of exercises and I am not surprised to see you go through to the next stage. Best of luck to you and everyone else going through to the next round.

In a classic case of life farting in your face, I got a train today and I swear it is the first time I've ever noticed the name of an East Midlands train, and what was it called?

The Carbon Cutter....of course!!

Oh no I'm sad to hear that you didn't make it through, please don't give up.

The assessment day was tough and I had no idea how we were scored and what they wanted to see - so I just had to be myself (as to who I am, I might have some eight-legged pets.)

I walked away from the hotel thinking we all did a pretty good job, and not knowing what the outcome would be.

Crikey... The Carbon Cutter! Life has some dark humour! Could also be a sign to try again!

Hi All, how did you pay for your parking last Wednesday for the assessment day at Darby Midland Hotel.

Was it complimentary for those attending the event?

I paid for 6hrs at the hotel, and have got a £100 fine for staying for 6 hrs 15 mins.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you

I parked in the hotel car park but went into the reception to ask if I could pay by card, the receptionist told me to enter my reg into their computer to prevent any penalty and they wouldn't charge as we were there on assessment with EMR.
