Hi all,

Just thought that I'd flag this event for anyone yet to complete the situational judgement tests. https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/brent-council-local-graduate-scheme-events-tickets-461127052427

The NGDP also have several workshops/webinars with tips and tricks.

guys we dont apply individually to each council do we? I applied on the general site, but also found a website where it gives the option to apply to specific councils

Some councils like the ones on the website did only local intake with a separate application, but I think at the end you can only apply for one or at least that’s what they said in an email to my friend (he applied for the National and one local) where they asked him to withdraw from one of them

That's annoying... it used to say we would find out if we passed stage 1 on 24th January, now it doesn't say that anymore.

Just been shortlisted for the video interview for the LCR local intake, does anyone know how many stages there are? if we pass the video interview is that it or is there an assessment centre?

yh same I passed this stage as well... I hope they eliminated a lot of people in this first stage so it could be a bit easier for the stages coming up

"an email from [email protected] with instructions and a unique code to access the video interview will automatically follow this email separately"
