Do you know the questions now? Any help would be appreciated

Why would anyone actually TELL you the questions.

That just gives an unfair advantage to you and could stop those of us who didn’t cheat beforehand- just do what you can to prepare like the rest of us , cheating isn’t the way to get in.


It gives you an unfair advantage as we didn’t know the questions before the interview

Hi all, I was thinking of maybe making a Whatsapp group chat for people who are planning on doing apprenticeships or degree apprenticeships in London, so we can like network and meet people the same way uni students are at the moment haha. Let me know what you think and if you would like to join ! :smile:

ah shame:frown: nah i was just asking to see if you were doing the same one as me (security software dev) bc assessment centre!
Just to let you know, even if you pass everything - including the assessment centre - there isn't always enough places for successul candidates. Always keep your options open and don't rely on one apprenticeship. Apply for as many as you're interested in or ones you can realistically do , eg, if you're happy to move to a new unknown place - and also consider university too. Personally - I think apprenticeships are a fantastic opportunity but the competition is tough and places very limited (especially in this pandemic year) Even if you pass everything and are predicted all As - there still might just not be enough places available :frown:

If you get made an offer then it’s okay, as long as you get the grades

yes definately but some people get a letter saying they have passed the assessment centre but they don't have enough positions for everyone who has passed so are unable to offer anything but will keep you on record in case anything changes. If you get an offer you are one of the lucky ones! Well done

also reminder last yeat bt cancelled their DA for offer holders (yes offer holders) last minute so make sure u have a reliable backup!
Well they're should be an extra open space available for the network engineer position.

I received my offer the next day after the assessment centre (they must've liked me), but I declined as I received an offer from the University course I wanted to do instead and plan on partaking in the graduate scheme upon completion of my degree :smile:
