But from what I understand there haven't been any successful people from London, Newcastle, Manchester and potentially Belfast? Just getting this from the thread though.

I really wonder which circumstances outside their control are affecting all these regions. Moreover, clearly in Birmingham it was solved in a few hours and yet the rest of us are still waiting?

So frustrating, so many delays. From what I've read on other threads it doesn't get any easier even if you get the job. Pre employment checks are taking forever.


No word for me yet in Belfast and I have not heard of anyone getting an interview invite, just the delay e-mails.

Thanks for ur email.

Can you give example of the additional questions? was it like ' did you face any challenges?' Etc

Was the main question as simple as give example when you have demonstrated managing a quality service or was it bit trickier and they read one of the behaviours in the competence?


Hi the additional questions were specific to my example so not generic.

The main questions was can you give an example of when you have managed a quality service.

Best of luck

Has anyone that has had an interview been told when the roles will begin?
hiya i have my interview later today (Cardiff). I was just wondering if anyone else Is feeling like they don't know much about the HEO job - im sure the original description was very broad and vague, and I forgot to save it after I applied / did the tests. So im now worried what i'll say when they ask why I want the job - I don't know much about what it involves?! does anyone?!

Go into the portal, click on the job title and on the right hand side you will have the option to view the original job description.

Hope that helps and good luck with your interview :smile:
They asked me why HMRC but not why the specific role. The candidate pack indicates that people may get places in different workstreams depending on their strengths.

hiya, thanks so much for your reply, sorry I don't understand where to find the portal?! I'm sure I tried to log in to Civil Service jobs though the other day and the HMRC one is not even listed in my application history. Other than that I have no idea how to find it. I really need to start saving JDs and PS's haha! always forget!! Thank you

Are you sure? If that's the case then I'm baffled.

Login on the top right, then click applications. It's not there?

This campaign was ran through the ManPower website, it doesn't link applications with the Civil Service Jobs portal.

Ah, I see.

The same campaign (ref 042R) was run internally first, through CSR. My apologies.
Anyone from NEWCASTLE been rejected or invited for interview yet? Only had emails regarding the delays!


Thank you so much! :smile:
Just for info (or not as the case seems to be)...
