Mine has 3 parts, written, group activity, online interview/role play.

The last 3 should all be part of your assessment day, I’m sure. Unless it’s different for different areas? What area are you?

Reply 41

mine said i had to book the written assessment, then the assessment centre but it also had a part on the invitation saying that you had to book the preparation session for the assessment centre - so yes 3 parts

looks like the preparation session is going to be online too

Reply 42

East Midlands. I had to book three separate days.

Reply 43

if the dates aren't good for you i would phone the number for the assessment centre and ask them what you could do about it

Havering-I booked written then received email to book assessment a fee days later.This will involve role play,interview and group activity.

Anyone have any revision points for the written and virtual role play assessments?

I'm guessing the centre visit is just to give us a brief...but then again, it might be an assessment day too 🤷🏾

Hey. I'm applying. Been given the go ahead for stage 2. Anyone booked in for the interviews/ assessments?


Hey, I’ve applied and recently been contacted for an assessment/interview. I’m super nervous, as I really don’t know what to expect and there doesn’t seem to be any info available online!

Hi all, I got through to the next stage and booked my written test for 9th June and the assessment day is 11th July. Anyone else for Greater Manchester?

I’m Greater Manchester but I’m on the 12th July

Yup. My thoughts exactly. I was hoping someone might have some ideas on what to revise and how to prepare!

Hi Debbie,

I have my written test on the 9th of June and my interview on the 30th of June in Leeds at St George's Centre :smile:

I wondered if anybody wanted to make a WhatsApp or Teams group to discuss the interview process/preparation.

I've been accepted to the second stage but have only been offered a date for the written assessment and not the interview so far! Is anyone else in the same position?

Reply 56

For our region we were sent 4 options for dates and had to make a request of which one we would like. We have been told we will hear back by tomorrow latest.

My invite for the interview came a few days after the assessment email, I think the assessments are coordinated centrally whereas the interviews are organised by the regional partnerships, hence why there seems to be a bit of a delay. :smile:
