Has anyone applied?

Just completed the verbal test and personal statement part. Better than 77% of other applicants on the verbal reasoning this time, these tests are soo hit and miss 😂

Had a rejection email 😂

Thank you for your application, unfortunately you are unsuccessful as you have not met the Qualification/Experience or Driving licence eligibility requirements for this job

Strange considering I’m already on two reserve lists for border force

Sorry to hear that, sounds harsh (and fast), hopfully the reserve lists come through for you.

That’s odd, I believe i ticked similar qualifications held but as it was optional in the next stage I didn’t specify what I had

Which area for appreciate are you applying for? I’ve applied for Manchester but according to the table you don’t get AHA for the apprentice role? I’ve asked the question but not had a reply as yet.
I’m still continuing with the application and passed the sift for interview.
