Re: OPITO Apprenticeship - Anyone?Ive no idea, if i dont hear back in the next week, im not going to pin my hopes on it. just get the pen out for next years intake ha(Original post by xperty)
Nope it was maureen hunter that inverviewed me and that was it.
When do you think we will hear back? -
dont be so negative peeps, my friend only just sat his aptitudes on 29th may. he is waiting for an interview date and you want to know if you're in or not. there are THOUSANDS of applicants, it takes time to review everybodys aptitiude tests and interviews and sort out where and what all the succesful applicants (pending exam results and medical) will be going and doing. jeeesh!!! dont be so inpatient. a friend of mine got through on merit and wasnt offered his place til early august. some people on reserve are offered places in september. there is plenty of time

Re: OPITO Apprenticeship - Anyone?what was the safety question? got my interview thursday like totally brickin it haha. i hear they give u an equation to solve as well that right?(Original post by xperty)
Yes, there was only one question that I didn't answer and it was just due to me totally blanking haha. It was a safety one, they were strange eh, -
Re: OPITO Apprenticeship - Anyone?
Think it was just a general what would you do in a certain scenario safety question, nothing major. Spoke to my mate that does the testing for opito and he seems to think that the majority of places still haven't been offered. The only positions have been given to applicants that really stood out so well done if you are one of them! My first choice was instrument. What about everyone else?

Re: OPITO Apprenticeship - Anyone?im the exact same, put down no preferences but explained its because im flexible to go anywhere. instrument is my first choice, especially as the college is literally within spitting distance(Original post by matt0091)
i put on my application that i had no prefrence as to what dicipline. i want to do instrumentation tho. would that have any affect or whatever ?? -
Don't worry about the interview, it's pretty straightforward so just be prepared to speak about yourself, hobbies and responsibilities- they don't really ask you much about the sector of work itself but I did get asked why I wanted to be considered and also why I selected the disciplines that I did.(Original post by matt0091)
got my interview on the 21st of june.
Good luck with your interview!

Has anyone else heard anything back yet? I emailed Maureen Hunter but no reply. Getting so anxious about the whole thing now. Just want to know one way or the other!
Give it time

Re: OPITO Apprenticeship - Anyone?Not yet mate. Although I spoke to my friend that does the testing and he said she is very busy organising interviews at the moment so I don't want to keep pestering her. Looks like I'll just have to wait it out...at least until July(Original post by xperty)
