Hey!

Have you signed on to your portal? I didn’t have an email to say I got to video interview, just saw it when i signed on!

I’m currently awaiting the result of my video interview to see if I get to AC!

I have my fingers crossed for you! Has it been 10 working days? I think I heard on 7 working days later? I hope this helps! If it has been I’d drop them an email (providing your portal hasn’t changed!) xx

Hi lovely. Thank you i will email them tomorrow.

What do you mean by if my portal hasn’t changed? I didn’t know that could happen.

Hi everyone. I’ve gone to log on to my portal and its blank! There’s nothing on there.. like I never applied?! My current status says… please start your current application!

Has this happened to anyone else?

This has been happening to me the last two days. I then clicked on apply for 2022, and it then asked me to sign in again. This then showed the correct current status of my application.

Mine keeps changing too! before the VI for unlocked it was saying i passed the test and then it changed and said thanks for completing the test and then the VI unlocked! After the VI it said thanks for completing your video, and now it just says ‘Video Interview’ and none of the stages are highlighted! I wonder what it means .. xxx

I guess they must be having some technical glitches. I keep checking everyday now lol, after I saw people posting that they hadn't received emails to say their video interviews had been unlocked. How did you find your video interview? Xx

Lol you're definitely the first person I've heard say they enjoyed it😂. I haven't heard back on my application yet, Friday will be 10 working days. I'm nervous about the amount of time you have to answer the questions on the VI, but I'll just have to try not to waffle lol xx
every time I get a promotional email from frontline my heart literally jumps lol anyone else. keep thinking its an update on my application !
just got an email saying they're taking a while to process applications as they've received a very high number so don't worry if yours is taking longer than expected.X

I just looked at my portal and it’s back to normal now. I got invited for the video interview after 13 days of waiting! Im so nervous
What’s the best way to prep for the video interview?
well done for video interview ! it is not as bad as you think, positives are it goes very quickly but that's also one of the negatives. DO NOT waffle, just get straight to the point. the questions were i thought as expected, theyre not trying to trip you up. go over the compentencies and im sure you'll do great.Xx
Does anyone know if I could do the video interview on my ipad? My camera and microphone s on both my laptops are pretty rubbish? Xx

That should be fine - just make sure the lighting is good and you have the iPad propped up in something so you can look directly at the camera and now down at the camera. Good luck!

Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
has anyone heard if they got through to AC yet ?
Hey, I’m completing my video interview tomorrow, any tips to prepare? I’ve looked at the competencies and the leadership document they’ve shared, any other advice is greatly appreciated ❤️

I did my VI today and it was over before I knew it! It sounds like you’ve prepared well already by reading both of those. I’d just say treat the camera like eye contact and try to get straight to the point rather than waffling. Good luck💓
