Best of luck!! Do you remember what date you initially applied? Just trying to get a timeframe for when we’ll hear back

It was the 13th October. Just found the info. Invited to interview on the 31st and then interview link sent November 3rd :smile:

Still no interview link

I applied for this role as well cannot remember when but emailed received 31/10 that I have been selected for interview.

Interview link sent on the 03/11 to be completed within 7 days but got 2 days extension on the 7th day for some reason so ended up completing it on the 12/11.

Currently waiting to hear back from them.

What questions did you get? I just got an interview slot

bit cheeky to ask what the questions were 😂😂 at the end of the day we are all going for the same role right so it doesnt make sense to give people an advantage over you by telling them what the questions were.

2 questions are based on the behaviours mentioned in the job ad so i suggest you construct an answer for those using the material provided in the ad (star method etc). 3 more questions based on strengths, again use the links on the job ad and research the strengths dictionary

Anyone who’s completed the interview heard anything back yet?

How was the interview if you don't mind?? I wish they'd given some sort of idea how long the responses will be or what type of responses I need to prepare

Can you please share the job post for this? Job post says AO but my email reads EO, so I am now confused what behaviors to prepare? This is my first time applying so I am all over the place. Appreciate the help in advance.

I completed my interview 01/12/23, someone that I know works at the home office as EO and it took around 2 months for them to hear back from their interview, they started working around 10 months after they applied.

Omg that number of months is absolutely daunting! lol. I did my interview for this campaign a few days ago

I submitted my interview for this on 31/10. I have not had an update since; I am still stuck on 'interview slot booked.' If offered the role, I know the security checks for the home office take months. A friend told me to expect the whole process to take 6-8 months.

I applied for the campaign before this one which had the same job title and I waiting just over 2 months to be given an outcome. For around a month and a half it said interview slot booked then it changed to awaiting review or something similar to that. Then after 2 months and 3 days I got the outcome that I've been added to the reserve list. So I've applied for this one as well and did my interview on the 31st and I'm awaiting the outcome

Just received the following email update:

We have received a large number of applications, and we continue to work at pace to undertake interview assessments. *We kindly ask that you do not chase any updates on the progress of your application, as we will contact you once the appropriate sift or interview stage has been completed.“

Guess it’s still a waiting game until individual updates are sent out.
