I am not applying for this. But want to know about any scheme for first aid at work.

I'm looking to apply to this when it opens, it should be today. Hoping to start work on my app when I'm home tonight.

Fingers crossed for everyone!

Waiting for the applications to open now! Also, I'm going to Australia on Thursday for three months... hoping there are assessment centres still going on when I get back (if I get to that stage!).

If you haven't been out of uni for more than 6 months do you not put any of your previous jobs in? Because I've had a job since I graduated 3 months ago, and had jobs during university but don't know whether to put them on the form!

I put my uni jobs in, I don't think it can hurt them to have a bit more information, even if it isn't required!

Have sent off my tests now, so it's the waiting game! I thought the verbal reasoning was more difficult than I was expecting, especially at the end.

How is everyone else getting on?

I'm not sure really, I guess it's just about reading the info carefully as everything you need to answer is on screen...but I found it difficult so I'm not sure my advice is the best! ;p

Have submitted my video interview now. Anyone else anxiously waiting for a reply to theirs? :s-smilie:

Good luck

Hi PyschNewc, how long after you submitted your video interview did you find out whether you'd gotten through or not?

I'm doing the verbal reasoning and situational tests tomorrow, so nervous. I've never been able to do these - any tips?

Have been invited to an assessment day :smile:

happy but nervous of what to expect!

Got the invite about a week and half after I submitted video interview, if that helps anyone, though I expect they'll all come in diff times as the submissions gets busier.

With the verbal reasoning there are lots of practice tests online. The situational one is quite fun actually, a look at what the job might be like!
