Ye I was confused by this but went with 01:00 to be safe. My interview was brutal 🙃

How was everyone’s interview? I found some questions so jarring

Not good from me. Difficult questions and I struggled with the lack of a human being to speak to

Can someone email them to ask when they will send the outcomes for the video interview. I would've done it myself but I've emailed them so many times that they are probably sick of me now.

Looking at the thread from last year, that one took 7 weeks it seems. But this one was severely delayed in starting so I don't think it'll be as long as that. I reckon we'll find out this week or next week

Anyone else had their application status updated saying interview slot has been booked?

Same! Hopefully that's positive news and not a civil service glitch

Anyone received anything further? Or different to the interview message?

I emailed the recruitment team about this and they said they are still finalising the outcomes?! Unsure if it was a glitch or not but hopefully will hear soon

Rejected

I was wondering what people's scores were? I got an overall score of 26, does anyone know what the cut-off point is?

I think it would be scoring the minimum pass mark of 4 in all 7 questions. This would give a total score if 28. So you're not far off. Dont be disheartened. Apply again next year. I know people in the fast stream that got rejected twice and then were successful third time round. All the best.

I haven’t got it either, my application centre also won’t allow me to book an assessment centre slot, it updated on friday morning to ‘application being reviewed’ after I had the email on thursday to say I had been successful! very strange, i’ve emailed the recruitment email a few times but no response yet

I have the same issue. I emailed the recruitment team so that they can forward me the link as soon as possible. I understand they haven’t sent the invitations to the AC yet?

I just wasn’t sure, as the guidance is so confusing and gives conflicting information about whether we book it ourselves or they send us a link. I did have an option to book a slot on thursday evening but this had disappeared by friday morning. Does your application centre say your application is still being reviewed or does it say invited to interview?
