I wrote a brief outline of what the AC was like in the previous slide and mentioned what came up.
But overall it was really good. Id say dont even think about it or stress about it. Stay calm, join the meeting and contribute.
Another piece of advice will be to read the brief properly. Dont think that you have to rush and make notes. Its better to take time, read the brief, and make quality notes.
Also if you do this and your presentation to the assessor is very clear and concise, there will be less follow up questions about it. For example, my assessor said that ive already answered some of the follow up question within the presentation, so there was no need to ask.

Nope ive not heard anything back. Which program did you apply for?

Let briefly me share my experience of the AC:
So obviously theres a short introduction where they run through the schedule of the day.
First task is a one to one task with an assessor. Essentially, you have to read a report which has info on a store as well as info about the area the store is in. You then make notes for like 30mins.
You then present your finding to the assessor, where you make a recommendation. They then ask you questions in relation to the report. Basically they look at how you analyse info and come to conclusions.
Pretty calm task, assessors were very nice. Actually enjoyed the task tbh.

2 Task: You have to use the notes from the previous task. You are then given another report about the same store but this wont be as much info as the previous report. You then add on to your notes. You will be given like 15mins.
Then you join a room with 2 assessors and 1 other candidate. The assessors give you a breifing on the task. They then give you and the other candidate 30mins to discuss your findings and come to a join decision.
You then have to coordinate a presentation with your partner answering 1-4 questions within the presentation. After the 30 mins you present it to the 2 assessors. Pretty simple again. Literally same as task 1 but more indepth and with another person.
But keep in mind that during the 30min preparation time with your pair, they listen in, see how you interact, etc. But it dosent mean try dominate the convo or ask difficult qs to your pair. You have to work together. If one of you are not onboard or not on the same page, then your both affected.
And thats about it.

I got separate emails for both. I got an email that I passed the Video Interview at the end of December and then an email to the Assessment Centre on the 3rd of January. I did the video interview mid-December.

Anyone done the Cyber Security one?

Me have u just applied?

I applied a while back - what about you?
