I've had an email to tell me I was successful at the interview on the day but as its a volume based they cant offer me a job at the moment there are staggered vacancy's till February and they will contact me nearer the time.

Good luck Lads.

Well Glasgow is what I applied for but I think they can put you anywhere, tbh still in limbo basically they said I passed the interview but as the volume was so high didn't get selected for the first intake and will be considered till February, so their saying I will be considered? mmmmm still a bit vague wish they could just give a straight answer lol

what about you guys?

I’ve been at consideration for assessment 2 for 6 weeks today for a position in my local area.
Such a long wait for a possible interview

I've just contacted recruitment. My status still says pending assessment 2. Interview was on September 14th for Perth and Edinburgh roles.
Was told on phone that the reason I've not heard back yet is most likely due to it being a volume based recruitment drive where the roles are filled over a period of time. He basically said I'm still under consideration but should hear by next Friday at latest.

Just off the phone with someone who is sorting through our vacancie. She said that if nothin has bee heard as of yet then your in a "pool" of people who have reached interview benchmarks, but are sifting through people with highest marks for suitable vacancies and location. If you havent heard anything yet then it most likely wont be until after christmas as she said she has worked through applications through to christmas. Just ANOTHER waiting game to see if we get picked for any vacancies.

Just got told the same in email I got, that I was in pool that had reached interview benchmark, but it also said this doesn't guarantee I will get a job, and that I should receive a letter with more information within 2 weeks
