@Imperial Blitz The Analysis one sounds tough - see link for more information https://www.assessmentday.co.uk/analysis-exercise.htm. The in tray one is probably similar to managing a project or going into work on a Monday and prioritising a variety of tasks in terms of importance - see link for more information and an example excersise - https://www.assessmentday.co.uk/in-tray-exercise.htm.

It costs £11.99 for practice Assessment Day tests - I am thinking to order this!

Fingers crossed and good luck all!

@SarahGrad777 Did you get an invite to the hidden economy interview? It will be good role play practice for the AC? I'm most nervous about the role playing task - ok with dealing with an array of customers but dire at fabricated scenarios.

I had to do an etray exercise for the fast stream programme, it was pretty tough but managed to get through! There was a practise one available, I will find the link as I'd imagine it'd be pretty similar.

Well done and congrats. Thanks @Rchilton - would be much appreciated.

When did or do you start the fast stream? Did you do any other tasks at the assessment centre?

The fast stream process is slightly different, you do online tests then progress to the etray exercise (online), then if you pass that you get an invitation to the assessment centre. I'm booked on for it next week, looks like a similar set up to the hmrc except it also involves an interview.

This is the link to the practise exercise, this may be harder than the one we have to do as the online tests for fast stream were harder! But will give you an idea on the format and time pressure.

Although just read over the briefing and it's an intray exercise rather than etray so actually the format might be quite different!

Thank you for that. I think the exercise is fairly similar but one is online and the other paper format, I'm guessing here lol.

Good luck for next week. What date is your TSP assessment?

Thanks, I'm not getting my hopes up as I don't really have time to prepare... have an exam Wednesday, straight to train station to get to London that night then assessment centre the next day! Meant to also have an interview in leeds for another grad scheme on the Friday but don't think I can hack it! My TSP assessment centre date is 8th Feb, the first one I think! How about you?

It sounds like a hectic week, but try your best to get to the one in Leeds - more options for you later down the line. Good job you're travelling to London the night before, so chill out that evening :biggrin:

Hopefully you will get offered at least one of the grad schemes. Good luck for your exam and for both AC & interview. Mine is on 25th Feb in Covs so not too far to travel from sunny Birmingham (I jest). Glad it's towards the end tbh as not sure I am looking forward to the wait thereafter. The wait was torture to see if I made it to stage 2 and 3 and they were just over a week.

Good news for all those on the reserve list, they're starting to reassign places from people who haven't confirmed.

I was on the reserve list, and got an invite to assessment through today (Warwick, 10th Feb). Keep on hanging in there! :h:
