2023 - Asylum decision maker recruitment

Just creating a thread for the 2023 intake. They seem to be advertising for multiple offices.

I applied and completed a test, then sent off my video sift last Thursday to find out today I’ve been successful and there’ll be an online assessment centre next. This is appointed on merit ‘shortly’

Any idea from anyone who’s done it before how long the wait is?

How did it go
Has anyone had any updates? I had an email saying that I’ve passed the assessment centre and they’ll be in touch soon, but no further updates.

I had the email yesterday to say I’d passed the assessment but not sure how long it’ll take for them to get in touch. Which office did you apply for?

I had an email telling me I'd passed the assessment centre 24 hours after it happened.
It took 48 hours from the email saying I'd passed the assessment centre to a provisional offer, they asked me to upload my passport and take a selfie for ID check and then 12 hours later sent me the request for the further onboarding info which I returned 4 days ago and have heard nothing else yet.

Which office did you apply to, I applied for Glasgow Office. I checked with them but received a response that the outcome is still under review and they cannot provide me with any timescales.

Glasgow Office, what about you? I still haven't heard anything.

I applied for the Sheffield office. Since I heard back that i’d passed the OAC I received a provisional offer. I’ve since provided them with all my onboarding info and my vetting info. So now it’s just a waiting game.

👍 thanks for update
Hey! I also applied for the Glasgow Office and waiting on my pre-employment checks to be done! Bit of a waiting game as I submitted them 3 weeks ago… hoping it won’t be much longer

I've only just seen this thread - I was on a different one, but includes lots of previous campaigns!

I'm at the "waiting game" stage! (Had a provisional offer and submitted documents for onboarding.)

I'm getting a bit nervous about the job though - I've not heard great things about the role, and the press surrounding it can be very negative. The info session/q&a was a bit more encouraging.

same for me. Did my OAC on 29 March, got an email the following day to say I'd passed, then nothing since. (Glasgow)
