GES Summer Scheme 2023
Has anyone had an application outcome / update yet?
I interviewed with the FCDO at the start of May and was told they hope to release the interview results by the end of May / early June.

Oof not great is it especially after the waiting so long but definitely staying positive too. What’d you get as a feedback score? For managing a quality service I got a 3

Nah literally same as you, 3 in managing a quality service, thought I did quite well in the interview tbf oh well it was a good experience anyway, the lack of people in the same situation makes me feel like the reserve list won’t be too big fingers crossed

Yeah same tbh my interview was really good and overran by a bit. My feedback said I could’ve benefitted from being less concise in my answers though.
Hope we both get an offer anyways, would you be based in London?

Hey, I interviewed at the treasury and found out that I was successful on Wednesday. Does anyone know what the start dates will be or how long (I know the advert said 6-12) the internship will be?

I got the same email but no other information. They must really like keeping us in the dark. Has anyone heard back yet?

I got another email confirming i had been allocated to the Treasury and then an email confirming which specific group within the treasury, saying they would confirm start dates etc.

Hey! If you haven't had the interview yet, definitely learn basic economic concepts like market failure, government debt, inflation, fiscal and monetary policy etc. Also, have an answer for why you study economics and what interest you about a GES summer scheme. I will warn you they do grill you a lot (they ask lots of follow up questions) but don't stress too much about that, they dont expect you to know everything, they just want to know your thought process mainly and that you have a fundamental understanding of Econ. Hope that helps! : )
