I've decided to withdraw my application i,m not doing the written test again !!!! for the 3rd time am disappointed, but at least I'm still working in the civil service I suppose Good luck everyone

Your joking?, I originally did it in the 11th and resubmitted it again on the 16th, I’ve not heard anything, I won’t be doing the test again if they ask for me to do it.

Does anyone know if you have to re-do the written assessment for different location applications? Or is it carried to all of your applications?

Anyone applied and had results of the first assessment yet? I keep getting the review emails once, sometimes twice a week!

Yes I got invited to do the written test today. 🙂

I'd like to know the same!

Has anyone got feedback on the written test? It says you have 25 mins to read and 25 mins to answer. Does this have to be done in 1 sitting? Was it a general scenario?

I've completed my written test today. I'm really confused though as it states its timed, however allowed me to extend (had to take an important call halfway through) I'm praying that doesn't fail me. Definitely over an hour from start to finish.

How long has it taken people to hear back from the written test?

Have you tried logging into your Home Office portal to check the status of your application? Just in case there's been an error sending an email out? I check my portal daily.

Are you waiting for the suitability results or written?
I'm dreading how long I'll be waiting to hear back from the written test. It took 27 days to hear back the suitability one 🤦

Suitability test bro am dreading they gonna let the people know who wait the longest that they have failed
