Just taken this test.

It is merely SJT and a few work-based lifestyle questions.

I completed this test last year for GTR and passed it, I have no idea why I must take it again, but hey ho.

Good luck.

That would have been nice for me, however already with another Toc now. Kinda disappointed with GTR i applied for a trainee roll last year and got an email several months later saying i didn't make the cut on the first stage (c.v) during this time i had already joined a Toc and was a month into my training.

This kinda thing happens often. Mine was a different toc though

I've just been invited to do

The mini Safe Concentration and Attention Test (miniSCAAT). Online..

Did a forum Search and it came up blank... Any advice or help would be brilliant.

Cheers in advance

 

[ESONEULB]

The mini Safe Concentration and Attention Test (miniSCAAT)
The miniSCAAT is an online screening test available on our Extranet online test and exercise system. It is designed to assess an individual's ability to concentrate and attend to a range of tasks and activities like the Safe Concentration and Attention Test (SCAAT). However, where the SCAAT assesses an individual's concentration over extended periods of time, the miniSCAAT assesses this over a shorter period of time and was specifically designed with this in mind. The miniSCAAT has been designed as a pre-sift tool prior to a candidate sitting the full SCAAT. Using the miniSCAAT as a screening tool will help you:

• sift large numbers of candidates online and unsupervised in a cost effective manner prior to candidates sitting the full SCAAT;
• increase your success rate through the SCAAT; and,
• recruit a higher proportion of 'safe' and 'effective' workers.

Like the SCAAT the miniSCAAT is ideally suited to assess for roles where sustained concentration and attention are key job requirements. It looks specifically at an individual's:

• ability to concentrate on a monotonous task;
• ability to concentrate on two things at once; and,
• ability to switch focus of attention accurately and quickly (attentional switching).

Well I guess that explains it

It was very straight forward so just relax and you will be fine.

Thank you !! When is your assessment day and did you apply for Cricklewood ?

 

[ESONEULB]

I applied for both... And I've not decided yet

 

[Akbrown London]

ok I see !

 

[Magoo]

Anyone heard back for hornsey or is it just Cricklewood?

Good luck

 

[ESONEULB]

Advice needed please..

I've applied for both of these positions and have an assessment arranged for one of them..

Today I received an invite to complete the same process for the other position.

Should I just complete the same process an get two assesments etc

Or call Resourcing Advisor - Operations
and let them know I have already got through to the assessment stage for one of the two positions?

The second one seems to make more sense to me

Advice would be welcome

You’ll need to specify to HR. You can’t have 2 assessments (if you fail one then it rules you out for 6 months anyway)

I'll speak to HR tomorrow and explain the situation..

Will they ask me which one I would prefer?

Hornsey or Cricklewood ?

Hi ESONEULB, can you please forward me the HR telephone number as I can't seem to find it anywhere and the customer services only give out a generic email. Would be most appreciated as I need to contact them urgent regarding my application.

Thank you

Thanks in advance.
