I had my online assessment in Nov and now received an email advising that I have been successful and they will let me know about next stage. Not sure how long it will be or what is next stage as I assumed that online assessment was the last one. Any one who have the similar experience ??

I had mine today. Felt I flopped it ☹️ Was over in 10-15 mins so i’m not sure if i’ll get through to the next stage. I prepared for every question but the ones I got! Oh well…

Did they get back to you ?

Do you know if it matters which location you applied for ? And also if longer it take them to get back to you , more likely they would put u on a reserve list. Location wise I am getting mixed messages that you would be considered for all locations near to you where you live.

Honest answer is I don't know. But logically I would suggest that the location you have selected would take priority. They do offer 2nd and 3rd choices however that is down to u to accept or not

I am now on a reserve list valid for 12 months. I guess anyone who hasn't heard back is likely to be on reserve list for the location they selected. Wish you all the best
