civil services data analyst hmrc july 2023

I have noticed this too. If successful they put you on the reserve list or being reviewed after giving result. Do you know why they do this and when they get back to everyone?

From my 6years experience the reason for this is to give offers from the top scores on the merit list down to the list. And also to get resources in place to get things rolling like checks and training

Makes sense thanks for that. I think if all stages are successful then reserve list and work in order of merit and if stages left than application being reviewed. Do you think you got the job even though you are currently in reserve? Did you apply for caseworker, 311 and 312 as well?

Well I know I passed the interview and I would receive an offer at some point so I’m not really worried just a matter of time and no I didn’t apply for the caseworker role as I am currently and been doing it since 2020. I just needed a change in career hence the transition into Data

How do you find the caseworker role? Do you enjoy it? Is it a stressful job? Just asking as I've applied & waiting to hear back, I've heard mixed reviews.

It was me. I have applied for couple other data analyst positions and wanted some advice on the presentation and the communication part for the technical assesment. Do you remember any of the specific questions they asked .

So with there being 53 vacancies advertised.. I'm guessing this means not all of them will be starting in November/December so they can do training in smaller cohorts?

I emailed the recruitment team yesterday asking I for my position on the reserve list in Manchester and they responded saying I’m 2nd position for manchester which really surprised me. Not they waiting begin.

I imagine Manchester is one of the more competitive ones (usually the case with the tax specialist scheme) so congrats 👌 hopefully not a long wait! Do you mind me asking what you scored in the interview?

Thanks


Yes hopefully. My score for the interview is 31. So I was quite shocked when they said I’m 2nd on the reserve list. I guess that’s after making offer to other people who may have scored higher.

I'm 5th on 30 for Cardiff.. it's a shame they can't show you on the applications portal where you are on the reserve lists

Hi, I just wanted to check if you’ve been taken off reserve or been given an update on your position by any chance?

For me I have not been giving any offers but looking at the job information this is what it says:-

Vacancy timeline 

Complete online tests and submit application by: 23:55 on Monday 31 July 2023
These dates are indicative only and subject to change:

Sift will take place during the weeks commencing 31 July and 7 August 2023
Interviews will take place during the weeks commencing 21 August, 28 August and 4 September 2023
Start date although every candidate is different, it’s helpful to have an idea of when you might start in the role. For planning purposes only we anticipate successful candidates starting in post between mid-November and mid-December 2023’’

So after December if I don’t get any offers then I start getting worried.
