Congratulations on getting so far! Please keep on eye on the 3rd status update. If it's something like "your application / interview is being reviewed" then it's a good sign! Only those who pass the interview stage will get a 3rd update. Good luck!

Hey. I start tomorrow and will update this thread as to how I get on.
I wouldn’t worry if I were you. From what I read most people on reserve eventually get a position. Just keep applying in between to keep busy.
Good luck hope you really enjoy it 😊

I had my PRVI on the 11th of December (I had 6 questions) and got my results back on the 24th of January, along with a reserve list, so hold on, it's a long process, but you'll hear soon.

Hi I’m trying to make sense of it I just got the outcome of my pre recorded interview for Cumbria/Lancashire Work Coach and I got the following:

Placed on reserve list.

Please see below feedback and score following your Pre-Recorded Video Interview:
Behaviour: Communicating & Influencing: Question 1: 4 Behaviour: Managing a Quality Service: Question 2: 4
Behaviour: Making Effective Decisions: Question 3: 4
Score: 12



My overall mark was 12.

Is that good and how likely is it that I would be made an offer as on merit list now for 6 marks is 12 my overall score?

Appreciate people’s feedback thanks!

It's a good point, that you are on the reserve list. However, regarding to their scoring system (minimum is 4 points, maximum is 7), you might want to accept that 12 points won't take you to the top of the list, but considering the need for workforce for your area, you might / might not get an offer within 6 months. My advice would be keep applying for other jobs, or if you are already in employment, only gave notice to your employer once your PECs are done. This will be another 7-10 weeks, so you have a long way ahead 🙂 Fingers crossed that you will get an offer, and remind yourself that you are on the reserve list because you managed to impress the recruiters that your are capable of doing this job 🙂

Only those get 3rd status update, who passed the interview with the minimum score (3x4, out of 3x7). Those who didn't pass will get an email with rejection.
