I got put the email I had met the standard, but put on the reserve list....maybe due to location options?? but is did say I would consider anywhere? when they first swapped it over my mine changed to say "project august" but since then its changed again?? guess they're just playing around with it?? mine just says "Application being reviewed" thats how you know your still on reserve list? unless you tell them otherwise.....I have an AC for the HMRC TSP, so may at least get an offer from that before any movement on this??

Hi there..re "reserve list" Have you had an interview yet? Or was that the email we all got after the online assessments?

Hi there
I've had my interview in January and got email recently to say i had met required Standard and was now on reserve list until further posts were available. But that was for Belfast area. What locations are you waiting on. To be honest i wouldn't pull application..its doing no harm sitting on file..you may regret it later

I am on the reserve list after initial application, so got the email "you have met the requirement, you will be placed on the reserve list for 12 months". So NOT had an interview or know what if there's actually any chance of getting one?? the portal keeps changing titles?? so don't know what thats all about?
when they changed to the new system in changed to "project August" and now its changed to just the generic....

I'm not reading too much into title changes..as long as main job title and ref stays the same. The system is going through a lot of updates and im sure Brexit has influenced the recruitment processes too. Stay positive.

There will be a set amount of places on each course.I have no clue how the applicants are placed if loads sitting with 34. They must have a system. I wouldn't worry. If they contact folk with less in the future and not you then I'd ask questions. Its a long waiting game from what I see from other threads. Well done on that score

Haha apologies for the sheer panic! I had missed calls from an unknown number last week so was wondering did I mess up and miss my chance! I suppose this is just teaching us all how to be a little bit more patient! Good luck, hope we both hear back soon!
