It’s fine most people get rejected and it’s part of the process. I wanted that one because they fund grads to study too, never mind. ☹️ Yes hope this one works out for us.

Good luck everyone! Remember rejection is redirection and it’s not the end of the world if we don’t get through, although it would be nice!

just got next stage intervew email! good luck everyone, mine is the finance scheme so maybe the early response is cause of smaller cohort, or maybe cause idk others applying (except on here), so not hearing much from others. now time for the next hurdle, i really hate being in front of camera so this interview formats a nightmare for me, but time to prep as much as i can (and this format from impact is more accessible than most), and hopefully we can share tips and resources amongst us.

again, good luck everyone. p.s., for people not successful, theres the pathways to planning scheme that has almost identical application thats still open, i didnt apply as i wasnt interested but theres a lot of overlap and its still working in local gov/council for graduates, so id check it out

congratulations on making it to the next stage! how do you usually prepare for video interviews? i also find them so difficult haha it feels so awkward and i never know what they're looking for

umm ok.. people know about the pathways to planning scheme , deleting your comment because someone told you to is weird.

usually i avoid video interviews if theyre unnatural like recording yourself, but now that they;re commonplace, ive embraced it. the hardest i find is trying to not sound robotic/scrpted especially as noone is responding, so now im gonna try pretend theres a person listening in so i dont ramblem and treat the questions as if someone has asked them. for this im just gonna look at skills and apply to question/my background
