    I don't know...
    The results should be instant. It's on a computer so the second you hit the "finish" button the results are there. They are easily collated.
    The delay is something else.
    Like I said, it should be "sometime this week"...

    Fair enough, your entitled to your opinion, I was speaking to a friend also waiting on results and he contacted NRS and that was what he was told, frustrating for everyone involved left in limbo, a text or email wouldn't go astray

    Agree entirely...
    No text or email is just bad manners

    Outlined? I got both within 5 minutes of each other. Just saying nothing really, "we'll let you know later in the week".

    That'll do, as long as we don't have to wait ontill next week. Does anyone know what the eligibility sift is all about? Surely people were deemed ineligible if they didn't have any of the required certs going to aptitude, does it form part of the ranking process for interview?

    I doubt its part of the ranking, it's probably just a yes or no by Ucd. The eligibility shift looks at other nationalities qualifications and the like so they know they're comparing like for like.

    Just got an email there, invited to apply for an interview!
    Just read the application and it asks for your current employer to act as a referee! I started a new job a few weeks ago so don't know how that will go down :-/

    "Do we have to ask your permission before contacting your referees?"
    "HELL YA!"

    They are tricky I went trough it all in 2013 found the forms hard just do plenty of thinking about the compency examples you write as a good portion of the interview will be based on what you write you will be asked questions on it and asked to explain further and will be scored accordingly also is no harm having a second example of each in the back of your head as you could be asked for another example in interview

    Ye, found the form tricky, had about a third of each page filled on first attempts, then I was running out of space!! Hopefully not too much waffle, and I hope to be able to lead the interview with what I wrote, hopefully enough to get called!!

    I think I read something like that too but that was with the forms being submitted a week earlier than they were.

    The answer to this is 'no' it's not part of the ranking system. This is purely about reviewing educational quaifications to ensure that the definitely meet requirements.
