Does anyone know why they havnt included the video interview between online tests and assessment centre? Pretty misleading to be honest, I really don't like online interviews I almost forgot about it until I came on here and read through the comments.

I meant on the flow chart system they have, not in actuality I know why they need to have interviews before the assessment centre with 1000's of people applying haha.

'If you pass the online tests, you'll be invited to attend an assessment centre' what a load of bull!

The video makes up part of the online tests. It's on the flow chart.

How long did you have to wait until it told you, that you passed the section for the online exercises?

I found out my results the next day (did them on sunday, found out on monday)

Waiting on the E-tray results now.

I failed my tests last year so this is one step further. :tongue:
Ah, I just want to know now.

This is frustrating, hopefully we find out early in the week.

Ah okay thank you! I completed mine last night and nothing has come through! Hopefully I have done enough to pass!

Good luck :smile:
Been over a week since the thing told me I passed the SJT test (the only one I had to do) and the etray still hasn't unlocked. Have emailed to find out whats going on.

Any advice/tips for the Etray?

Not necessarily. I received an e-mail to say I have passed the SJT six weeks ago and I am still waiting for mine to unlock. Check your inbox from top to bottom!

Any know why the generalist role doesnt require a final interview?

Also is there a lot more places available for generalist roles compared to others?

Applied for diplomatic but worrying about my chances.
Has anyone heard back from the e-tray test (the one with emails)? How long did it take? I got my SJT test results straight away (15mins), but this been a week. And boy, what on earth was that e-tray test about?? I had no clue for half of it, all responses seemed the right ones in one way or the other.

It took a week and a half to hear back for the SJT. Nothing about the E-Tray. I actually have no idea how I'll do; finding the least appropriate was simple but sometimes I had to think hard about the most appropriate.

No idea, but Diplomatic was my first choice so I'm worried that although I may qualify for Generalist, I may not for Diplomatic.
I was waiting over three weeks for the results of my SJT and BT and three weeks now since I did the E-tray. Just hoping we get results soon! :smile:
We should start getting the results of the E-tray back this week. I hope it's not on the 18th again like last month with the SJT and behavioural test results. That would make it Friday and that still feels ages away. :frown:
