DWP EO Work Coach - 683 South East Wales - Recruitment Discussion Thread

Anyone here waiting for 683 (South East Wales)?

Hoping for results this week. The process has been relatively quick in comparison to what others are saying about other campaigns so far.

Status updated yesterday to "Thank you for completing your pre-recorded video interview. You should hear from us soon with regards to the outcome" after completing the PRI last week.

Hi Rogue_UK,
I have applied to this campaign. I have done the interview, and today my application status changed to: "Thank you very much for completing the interview. Your application is being reviewed."
According to many people here, apparently its good news... Lets see how it goes.
Do you keep track of your application status? Did it change today too?

Hi there! I was beginning to think I was the only one on this campaign!! Haha

I got this same message today too. It looks like some people from the South West campaign also have it.

I really hope it's good news but I guess were in for a weekend of apprehension.

Let me know if you hear anything and I'll do the same 🙂

i was reading on another thread that someone from 'South Wales@ campaign(im guessing he meant South West) he got that status change 3 days ago, then yesterday got an email confirming reserve list. So there is good chance that early next week we should find out for sure.

Fingers crossed we get offers haha but tbh i'd be happy even with an reserve list, definitely will boost my confidence as I have other interviews lined up in the coming weeks.

I think I've applied to 7-8 other campaigns around the UK, interviewed for all of them, and first time i got this status change, so i'm well excited about it 😂 will enjoy this moment over the weekend while waiting for confirmation. haha

And yes, I'll definitely keep you posted when I find out anything about it. Have a good weekend!

I know it was a long weekend, but I set my expectations for 3 days like someone mentioned. But I can't help not check my emails all the time and my status to see if anything changes. Lol

Three questions - One for each behaviour. They can be different questions in each interview but will always be centered around the three behaviours.

Look at success profiles and create your answers in advance. Preparation is %100 key here.

Good luck 🙂

A time you made a difficult decision that impacted others

A time you went above & beyond expectations to provide a great service?

How would you deal with a difficult customer and influence them to an agreeable outcome?

Has been a while but I'm pretty sure got asked those. Are you having your interview soon?

What did you score? Mine was all 4s. I don't know what I'm gettting, for now just the id check, which I just done. How long after the id check did you hear from them?
