    I did the interview nearly 2 weeks ago and apparently we are due to hear back in the middle of next week. Any idea how many positions they are looking to fill?

    Apparently there are no more steps in the process too, it said in the advertisement about possible tests or presentations but I was told the interview was the final step which is good. Hard to know how the interview went too.

    They are possibly not doing further steps if they plan to fill the positions quickly too!!

    Yeah normally there would be the like of an "etray" which would happen the same day as the interview. Its hard to be optimistic about it when there is only a small amount of posts but I guess to be shortlisted to the interview stage is a good thing. Its the waiting that is a killer!

    Made the panel myself just about. Didn't expect them to have 36 on the panel. Wonder what the chances of them calling that many in 2 years?!

    I contacted ABP back in November 2017 and asked them how far into the panel they currently are. They replied that the next position will be offered to the person placed 14th on the panel.

    I wonder how far along they are now at this point?!

    I am placed number 33rd on the panel. Not sure they will get to me before the 2 year panel expires.

    Anyone else have any more info??
