    From experience lads, this whole process will take a considerable amount of time.
    Anywhere between 3 months and 9 months from the initial advertisement to getting told you've been placed on the panel.
    Getting off the panel itself can vary significantly, depending on your place on the panel, location you want to work and of course demand.
    Anywhere from 2 weeks up to a maximum of about three years (after being advised you are on the panel).
    Take it easy, relax and keep applying for other jobs (Obviously)
    Best of luck.

    Aren't panels normally only of one years duration?

    ICT results out now. I was 1100s in the EO, placed top ten in this, so there's hope for anyone who wasn't happy with their EO results.

    And I was sickened coming in at 88! When you're that close hernie, surely there'll be a chance that 4 or 5 of the accepted candidates may not be able to participate in the next stage for whatever reason and you may yet be called?

    Yeah, fingers crossed. The wording of message leaves it open for them to call more for interview so you never know.

    Missed out on interview by about 30 places. Not too disappointed as these tests are the best way of practicing.

    For those of you still waiting - check your pas account as my message was there but I hadn't received an email
