Civil Service Direct Appointment Scheme 2022

Just received my rejection from Property Fast stream after FSB.
Does anyone know when the first emails about DAS normally come through

"Good Afternoon,

The DAS Scheme is not yet running, candidates who are eligible for this will be contacted directly once the scheme begins later on this year."


Sent them a cheeky email and this was the response, so I guess we should all leave it for now and come back later.

Hi, just wondering what the email is to contact them?

I scored 10.96 for FBS & 18.5 for PD FSB. Does anyone know which score they prioritse when evaluating/ likelihood of getting offered a role?

Hi everyone, received an email about expression of interest for an EO role via DAS earlier today (29/03/2022). I scored 9.5 at FSAC, having been considered for Diplo and Generalist, so good luck to all of you who are waiting for your email. Fingers crossed!

Same. Also received an email to express interest for EO positions in a range of departments. My FSAC score was 9.25

Congratulations!!!!! Im glad they are beginning to send out emails.


FYI to anyone who may potentially be in line for a HEO role, please remember that they are usually sent out later. To reiterate, you will likely be waiting longer than those who will receive emails for EO roles. Please be patient.

Do you know how much longer is the wait for the HEO roles?

Last year it looked like 2-3 weeks before they started sending them out. But some people were left waiting for a really long time sadly.

Thanks. I think with my score of 10.6 I’m looking at a HO role but would like to know sooner rather than later. I’m finishing university at the beginning of June and don’t have a job lined up yet, would love to join the Civil Service but I might have to start applying for other positions rather than just waiting for DAS. Been reading the threads from previous years and some people didn’t start their posting until mid December which is a really long wait!

Does anyone know if DAS is sent straight after rejection for FSB? I haven't received a DAS email however still have 1 stream left (not holding my breathe). I only scored 10:38 which is still incredibly low however have seen some DAS been offered for a score of 9 for EO.
