Civil service fast stream 2025

I only got average in the numerical test, is that an absolute no for me then? 😬

Can you choose the order in which to do the tests, or do you have to do numerical, work based then case study? I've been given access to them now but I'd rather start with one of the latter tests

You can’t choose

Please don't panic they probably haven't set the benchmark scores yet and I recall from reading the Fast Stream website that we could hear back as late as December 2024. In past years there were more tests and hoops you had to get through before you got to do those tests. I haven't submitted my application yet because I need time and space to do the tests so giving myself this. Good luck

They have streamlined it this year. There is only a numerical test, Work Based Scenerios and case study assessment. In past years there was 4 online tests then you only did the work based scenerios and case study if you passed the online tests for your chosen schemes. They have also got rid of the video interview assessment stage too. So if we pass the initial tests we go straight through to the assessment centre which is why it is taking longer than usual to get the results of the Work Based Scenario and Case Study Assessments.
You can also space out the tests so that your not doing them all in one sitting. I tend to a test a day because they can be mentally draining.

Is there anywhere that I can find this information? Thank you

Anyone know when we’ll found out the results for wbs and case study?

According to the website it will be end November at the latest when they have decided on benchmarks and everyone has taken the tests.

I finished all of the tests last night - I got feedback from the data test and the case study test straight away. Just the wbs waiting to hear back from, but sounds like that could be a while.

What was your feedback in the case study test?

“Your responses to the Case Study demonstrated a capability to make appropriate
judgements in situations presented. In this respect your performance on this
assessment is higher than the majority of other candidates. Such a capability is an
important foundation in developing the necessary skills to succeed on the Fast
Stream.”
Not sure why I’ve received it when seems like most haven’t!

That is weird - I wonder if you have scored so highly on the case study that they can give the feedback confidently already
