How did you assessment centre go?

Thanks for all the help so far.

Hi Baines99,
They said to me that it would be between 10-15 days to get back to you either way. Today is my 11th day waiting and I had mine on the 28th May - same as you.

I'm hoping, either tomorrow or Friday for a response back!

10-15 days is what I heard as well. I was considering emailing them to double check. I’m out of the country on Friday and am worried I won’t be able to receive or reply to any calls/emails they sent me

I got a phone call this morning saying it was "good news", they thought I did well but they can't get give formal offers yet as they're waiting for approval for those that have been shortlisted. Not sure exactly what that means but hopefully you guys should hear back soon as well.

For the record, I attended the AC at Glasgow last Thursday.

Thank you! - To be honest, i thought i didn't do well and i thought i wasn't saying the right things. I think, if you receive an email from them asking for a cover letter and a CV from you, then i am pretty sure it means you have been successful and you move straight to the assessment centre, you'll get an invite through email once you have submitted CV and cover letter on request.

Oh right, perhaps i'm wrong. It just seemed that because thats what happened to most people who were at the assessment centre and that they have your CV and Cover letter during the one-to one interview at the assessment centre.

HELLO, thank you to letting me know. I don't think they will take me :s-smilie:

because they've send me a message today saying they've read my CV and they would like to know if I have 5 GCSE or equivalent including maths and English, I have 5 GCSE but not English and maths I am waiting for my results. on the website they said that I don't need English and maths GCSE for an foundation apprenticeship. I feel soo nervous and really bad right now
