Charityworks scheme

Well today is the day we should find out. Not feeling confident about it but that is just me.

Same. Good luck! I keep desperately checking my emails

Couldn't agree more. Not only is the application process quite arduous but the scheme itself is a full-time job for only 18k with the added weight of various assignments and training days thrown in.

It's a tough world for graduates, even for those with fairly modest ambitions of wanting a career in the charity sector!

Just rang up, they're experiencing delays but the emails will go out tonight.

Thanks for the update. Was there any indication as to the time or is it all, as I've assumed, automatic/random?

Getting really cheesed off with not knowing now.....

"This email is to inform you that your performance during the shortlisting stage has not met the required standard to progress automatically to the assessment centre stage. However, you have performed well enough to be added to our waiting list for assessment centres. This means that we may still contact you if a place becomes available at one of our assessment centres in May or June.We will contact you no later than 10th June to let you know if you have been successful in progressing further in the process."

I am not good enough for automatic promotion to the assessment centre apparently. But I may go through. Presumably if the people they have selected say "No thanks. This has taken so long I'm doing something else". What a waste of time this is. I just want an entry level job!

Anyone else get anything?
