Oh really? How was it? Easy? And it says I’m still under review so I’m still waiting !

Good luck !
I'm quite bad at math so I found it a little bit challenging but I imagine if you're even just okay at math that you'd find it easy! There was a lot of graphs and charts to analyse, all multiple choice! Which locations did you choose as your top choices?

Ohh okay, you’re good! Remain positive always. And I think I chose Islington, Lambeth and Westminster. What about you?
I’m working on the behavioural part of the application. No luck finding good info on issues in the public sector

It was quite short compared to some of the other tests I've completed! Although I've not heard anything back yet so I'm not expecting any good news

You should email them if it has been over 24 hours without a response. I think that’s what they said anyway
Submitted my application! I’m so nervous because I’ve only now realized the deadline was yesterday....
Another section says the application deadline is July 10th I’m so confused

Thank you! Really? It says July 3rd on the website but on my application profile it says July 10th. I’m sensing some disorganization on their part here haha

Yeah, I’ve just seen it says July 3rd, but you’ve submitted it now anyway! And it defo must be some sort of miscommunication 😭
