Nope, I was expecting there to be more questions too but it just asked for your choice of region

so was that all that you answered? and have you heard back?

Yes that was all I answered and I heard back yesterday I'm through to the final interview
I got a telephone invite too .
Hey I’ve got my telephone interview too,I requested London & Yorkshire.I thought that there might be more questions or even a motivational essay but I’m not complaining
I was also wondering if we get a positive appraisal when we are through to the scheme do we enter into fast stream right after or is it the following year?x

did you guys get any questions to answer? I only got a question about the location preference but i expected more questions?

I emailed them to make sure, and they confirmed that this was the only question :smile:

hey mine is on Wednesday, I was wondering if you could briefly say what type of questions they asked and how it went?? congrats for getting the interview and getting through it though!! :smile:
also was wondering if they asked what scheme we want to be placed in or if it's dependent on where they put us. I did the EDIP last year and wanted to do diplomacy but ended up in the pensions department lmao

I think it went okay. I had this nice lady. She didn't ask what scheme I wanted or anything. We just sort of did an intro (hi how are you kinda thing) then went straight into the questions. In the guide, there are 4 strengths so I would just say have some good examples of when you demonstrated them and you should be good. It's a couple of questions on each strength. Said I should hear back either by the end of the year or in the new year

Good Luck!
