Probation Officer 2020

I wanted slots for the London assessment centre and the only available ones are in Wakefield. Proper gutted as I don’t even know if that length of journey is worth it? Bearing in mind I submitted my assessment slot 6 hours after they sent it to me ;( I phoned up and they basically said oh well I didn’t book quick enough.

When I first called they said there isn’t anything closer. I called back and the man I spoke to advised me to keep calling and checking for cancellations so that’s what I’m going to try and do. Exactly! I really want this job but my worry is reimbursements for the cost of travelling that far and also the thought of how gutted I’d be if I don’t get it ☹️ But either way I’m definitely going to go!

Just keep phoning. You never know! Something might come up 😌 I have a 2 hour journey to my assessment centre because there isn’t anything closer to home either. But the same as with you, I’ll keep phoning to see for cancellations etc, if not I’ll just attend the one I’m booked in on! Where is it your travelling from?
Oh don’t think like that! Have a positive mind! You have just as much of a chance of being successful than everyone else who is there on the day! Just remain positive and do your best - that’s all you can do. And if you are unsuccessful this time round, nothing stops you from applying again! 😌

Good luck to all having their assessments this week 😊🤞

How did it go today? How you feeling now? Relieved it's over haha. Was it as intense as I imagine it to be?

I’m feeling exhausted . It was hard going , the written exam was the most challenging for me , wasn’t enough time to include everything I’d have liked to another 10/ 20 minutes would have been perfect . I’m definitely relieved I’ve done it and it’s out of the way
