Yep!
Thats strange! There was only around 20 people who got through to the Assesment centre for Leeds!
Edit:

Just checked online and it is two different options!

Yorkshire & Humberside

Business Administration

Finance

North West

Business Administration

Yep sure here's the link - the closing date for applications was 21st March: https://www.civilservicejobs.service.gov.uk/company/nghr/jobs.cgi?SID=b3duZXI9NTA1MDAwMCZvd25lcnR5cGU9ZmFpciZqY29kZT0xNDA1NDI3Jg== (you need to login to see the details - signing up takes a few seconds or you could see the spoiler below)

I done the tests haven't heard back from them yet :/

Oh, I wish I knew about this scheme earlier. You can never have too many options to choose from.

On a side note, I wonder what the written exercise will be like on the assessment day.

Yh true! where else have you applied to i you don't mind me asking? I just can't seem to find other good Apprenticeship schemes.

The written exercise is really tough! but for what scheme are you referring to?

I saw that a 45 minute written exam!
Heck knows!

I mean I prefer to type stuff then write it so I'm nervous about that!

The civil service scheme coming up next week :tongue:

I've applied for a few local schemes in accountancy, tax, things of that ilk. You're right it is very hard to find good apprenticeship schemes, unless you're interested in doing a trade. Being a feministdiva and all I somehow doubt that a trade is the right thing for me :biggrin:

I hear the interview next week will be competency-based. Hopefully they don't quiz us on anything outside of the stuff we've already written on our applications or I may get a case of the stutters. :angry:

Going to the Assessment centre in Leeds this Tuesday, so scared :eek:

I've just been doing mind maps & things with the competencies as subjects? I've managed to think of a few things I can use as examples for them all but don't know if they're any good? Any better ideas?

Does anybody know what to expect for the written & group task?
