HELP: Border Force Apprenticeship 2020 Application

I'm answering the same application right now, too!Its a difficult question because its not the typical

Hey! Did you answer this? Im stuck on what to do. do you put a past example or say what you would do?

Honestly i am still none of the wiser as to whats even expected from this question!? I've gave a past example of customer service and i'm going to also answer their question but not sure if thats right... What have you both gone for?

Hi there, has anyone heard back from Border Force since the vacancy closed last week?

No nothing here as well. Probably another week or so for a reply. As they said interviews will be from 3rd of August. If anyone gets Tilbury let me know😁I live here

Still no reply here too - I applied for Goole, Hull & Grimsby. Praying to hear back soon...



Where did you see that interviews would be from the 3rd?

Going by previous campaigns on old threads it looks like it’s going to be a long, drawn out process! Fingers crossed for a quicker response for everyone 🤞

Yes around 3 months for an interview and 6-12 months for start of paperwork(but also is depends on location, as you saw before people with lower scores also contacted 🤞).

Yes location definitely plays a part. I applied for Glasgow or Edinburgh. My sister also applied for these locations on an April 2018 campaign - she was successful on application and interview, yet still sitting on a reserve list 2yrs later. Perhaps there will be more movement now with Brexit looming!

Seems odd they are even interviewing when they have people still waiting to start after 2 years ?
