Civil service fast stream 2014/2015

I'm on the 12th I have a question how do you know which of the streams you have been sent to the assessment centre for? As I applied for all three of the commercial and finance ones but the email inviting me to the AC didnt say which ones I was being assessed for

Still awaiting results for the Diplomatic Stream - has anyone had a response recently? Not liking the possibility of having to wait til the 19th December!

Are you waiting for test results or for e-tray? I'm kinda sure that there hasn't been a further band narrowing since the initial one at e-tray at the beginning of the month, as surely we'd see here! *Fingers crossed* it's soon !

Yeah the etray, completed a few weeks ago. Are they going to be released in waves or on a case by case basis?

Anyone else got the FSAC on 11th Demeber? I didn't think it would be so soon!

Also, does anyone know if they will pay expenses towards a hotel over £120, e.g. £120 towards a £150 hotel - leaving me to pay the £30?

Thanks

Hi,

The website says you can claim any actual expenses up to the maximum of £120 for the hotel. So I'd say it's fine if you spend over but they will only reimburse the £120. Also remember they will deduct £10 off your total expense claim as they expect you to contribute the first £10.

Anyone else got the FSAC on 11th Demeber? I didn't think it would be so soon!

Thanks! Have you been for your FSAC already? How did it go? Less daunting than expected or is it reasonable to be as terrified as I currently am?

I also have mine on December 11. Are you on the analytical stream as well? I only had my SRAC last week so I am very surprised it is so soon. It will be nice to have it over with though, and its less time to get stressed out about it!

I'm on the commercial one I think it's mixed. I know I'm glad in a way I'm such a worrier will be glad when it's all over!

Has anyone who attended an FSAC, received their result yet? I can't seem to stop refreshing my scheme progress page...

Still refreshing too.. It has progressed from "awaiting event" to "awaiting results". Baby stepped progress I guess...

Yep, I know what you mean! Good luck, hope it goes well!

I was really nervous for the SRAC but once I got started on the exercises I was fine, so I hope it will be a similar experience this time.

I had it on Wednesday. I feel like some of the exercises went really well and others pretty badly so hopefully the ones that went well will bring my scores up. It's honestly okay, its a long, quite intense day but the exercises are interesting. There's no need to be terrified, just go in and try your best! And everyone there is really nice which helps

Mine was on wednesday too! Same with the some good some bad situation. In terms of competency I'm really worried that I didnt display my ability to make effective decisions properly, but hopefully it will scrape the minimum 2 required.
I didn't ask about the timeframe for hearing back, do you hav any idea what kind of wait we might be in for?
