NGDP 2023 (Cohort 25)

Did anyone else who did the local recruitment got their call with the outcome of the final interview and heard from the council since??

Hello, I had my interview with H&F on the 20th and they offered me a place on the 26th, but their HR said the contract won't be sent over until late June. The NGDP intimated that these things vary widely from council to council, so don't worry if you haven't heard anything yet.

Hi has anyone heard anything yet..?

I suppose we’ll be notified from the 11th of May.by

It says by 11/05.
This is what it says in the q&a:

Q13. When will I be notified about my interview dates?

You will be notified by Thursday 11 May at the latest regarding interviews taking place in May and June. Interview allocation emails will come through separately over the course of several days, so please have patience as you wait to hear further news of interviews. You will receive an email when all interview allocation emails have been sent. You will be contacted by the councils interviewing you with the details of what to expect following notification from the NGDP team. You will be given at least 5 days’ notice of details necessary for each interview

It's saying over the course of several days and deadlines by Thursday. Doesn't leave them much time. I really thought some of us would get our allocated interviews today and tomo.
