Just spoke to a helpful guy at EMT and they have had over 1000 applications for the job, they hope to have shortlisted by the end of the week.

I believe they will take on more than one person. As Mick mentioned, the advert implied that several training courses will take place throughout 2016 and I am fairly sure each course will have multiple people on it.

Well done. It was my first application so wasn't expecting much anyway. And I know I didn't tailor my cv enough.

Bad news for me also. My first application for a very very long time, so wasn't expecting much.

It states I can't apply for any more jobs for 6 months, which I think is a bit rough to be honest.

I'm from down south in Reading but will relocate if offered the job. If you are willing to relocate then it shouldn't be a factor.

That'll be six months with EMT - doesn't stop you looking elsewhere within the industry..

We should then, if enhanced scores, miss the next two stages

Hopefully yes, I've got enhanced scores in all tests (assuming EMT enhanced is the same as FTPE). Do you know if you have enhanced passes?

Does anyone know at which point EMT do the DMI? I vaguely remember reading it might be before stage 2 assessments.

I did the DMI prior to stage 2 but didn't get through so I didn't get to the assessments. I guess it depends on when the DM is available and timing. I must have enhanced as I got fast tracked to the interview

I have the enhanced scores.

I only found out because the last TOC I applied for just put me in for the DFFT and then DMI.

When I took my assessments with DBS they didn't tell me how well I did just that I passed.
