I was confused at first too but it doesn’t mean there are 21 vacancies it means there are 21 locations with vacancies

Luckily I haven’t had to do the games, they pulled through the results from a training managers role I applied for.

It states “Number of positions available” 21 but there are also 21 sites listed this will be my fourth time applying each time ive ended up on a reserve list or been offered spots in London but i cant move to London tbh also is this is being done by the recruitment company they used one time before then the process is infuriating.

Well that’s probably me out. Didn’t pass the first assessment, even though they used prior test scores for a BF job from April that was a higher grade. I went on to be successful at interview but put on reserve.

Appeal sent!

I’m out too. I passed last year and got to interview. Stupidly I applied for the immigration officer role in august. The test was really glitchy and I didn’t pass. When I applied for this they used the same test score which I think is really unfair. I appealed and they are not interested!

Quick question how quickly do you progress through to test stage after submitting your application? Ta

Just completed the written test.

Quite straight forward, plenty of time, and it doesn't have to be done on a desktop either.

Absolute jokers. They are worse than the other ones 😂 still can’t see why they can’t extend the 6 month reserve list from the other campaign to be honest.

It made me laugh to be honest.

Used the same answer I’ve used twice before which passed both times.

I’ve emailed to asked for any feedback.
