Judicial assistant applications 2021

Hi, I just thought I would start a thread on here for anyone who wants to discuss the JA application round and share when they hear back regarding interviews.
Not sure how many people will be applying this year but would be great to get in touch!

I've already applied again, hopefully better luck this year :lol:

Months. It's public sector so don't expect them to be quick. Last year I booked my interview in May.

Same, not reading into it but might just mean they have begun the screening process.

From last years thread it does appear it’s the screening process 🤦🏼*♀️ At least it’s moving along!

Anyone heard anymore since the portal changed to “on hold”
Nah, still on hold :frown:
Interviews aren't being held until 13th and 21st May 2021 - don't think we will hear anything until a couple of weeks before these dates.
