You should have received an email from Artic shores, about 5 mins after completing the "tests " with a complete breakdown of your behaviours.It has 5 sections and a number of sub divisions.

How they can determine yor suiitabillity for the role of a BF Officer by hitting the space a number of times and identifying when someone looks surprised or angry, is beyond me

I had that but it didn't say if I'd passed or failed.

None of us know yet.

The email states you will receive notification, obviously if you get an interview link you’ve passed the first stage

Check your emails.

I’m not being taken further on this occasion 🤦*♂️

I’m starting to get really annoyed at the whole border force recruitment to be honest.
Having been a PC for over 11 years, military experience and already being on a reserve list, but now can’t even pass the first stage

Me too. Considering appealing.
Just got my email, I'm onto the next stage 💯🙌

sorry to hear this mate, im on reserve list for october 2021 still been successful this campaign also but how they can kickstart another campaign and we don’t take priority is beyond me. got the same experience as yourself in one area but didn’t score to highly on last campaign just scraped through but you’d like to think we’d be most fitted for the roles 🙄🙄 absolute joke
Had my email too. I am also through to video interview.
Has anyone done the interview yet? Also got my email too 😊
Had my recorded interview invite today too, after completing the 'games' on Saturday, which I'll complete tomorrow.

How they deducted the paychometric scores from those games I will never know. I also assumed I wouldn't get the interview as my laptop is pretty old, and on the reaction test games it took too long to register that I'd clicked and repeatedly told me I was too slow.. I also think the last 'game' was an impossible task and was only there to test how long you would keep trying until you gave up.

If anyone else does the interview before me feel free to let us know how it goes and what to expect!

I attended the chat session they arranged and I’m sure they said in that, vacancies were being filled from the reserve list. I’d like to think anyone on a reserve list would be offered a position first, otherwise it would be very unfair…

I guess if it helps anyone, my 'most extreme' psychometric scores on the test were

Cognition - Processing information 8
Interpersonal style - Adjusting behaviour to context 9
Interpersonal style - Dominant and assertive 3
Interpersonal style - Maintain social harmony 8
Thinking style - comfortable with uncertainty 8
Thinking style - prefers variety and change 9

All my other 16 scores were pretty much down the middle, ie. 'average' person.

How they deducted these scores from those games I will never know. I also assumed I wouldn't get the interview as my laptop is pretty old, and on the reaction test games it took too long to register that I'd clicked and repeatedly told me I was too slow..

Yes, came through on an automated email half an hour after completing the 'games'.
