I applied for the border force apprenticeship that closed 19th July 21, got some good scores on the tests but I'm still waiting for the video interview! I know people that have applied for the actual officer role have been getting their video interviews, I'm just wondering if anyone who applied for the apprenticeship has?
Also, anyone who has started the apprenticeship, how long from application to starting? I already work in a prison so shouldn't be too bad with pre-employment checks..should be a level transfer I think!
It’s nice to see a new forum for the most recent campaigns I also applied for this apprenticeship but am now waiting to hear back if I’ve passed the initial sift. I know someone who’s done the apprenticeship, their whole application from applying to starting took around 6 months but have heard others who’s have taken over a year so it’s a guessing game really

Ah that's good to know I'm not the only one waiting lol! It does seem the apprenticeship doesn't take as long as the officer role, I know a few people already employed as most people who leave the prison service seem to go into border force lol! I haven't heard of anyone doing the apprenticeship though!
i also applied but still says 'application received'!!!!
Think everyone who applied is still seeing that! :'( I'm hoping we will all hear something soon, seems apprenticeship one it takes a while what location did you apply for?
Little bit of a shining light! Just heard from someone else who applied, they received an email today saying that they didn't get an interview, so maybe the whole "no news is good news" applies here?

Was this for the apprenticeship? Haven’t heard any updates from people who applied for that but maybe I’m looking in the wrong places. Fingers crossed for us 🤞🤞

Yep for the apprenticeship! I haven't heard anything other than from one person, and they got declined, so I'm hoping the fact none of us have heard means it's good news? What area did you apply for?

Oh damn was this on one of the other threads? This must be good news for the people who haven’t heard yet, I applied for Harwich/Tilbury what about you?
