    IST Stage Update (17:30 4th December):

    We are finalising the resolutions to the online IST system and anticipate bringing the system back online later this week. We will issue a further communication to impacted candidates on Thursday 7 th December outlining when the system will reopen and revised timescales for completion of the test. Once the online IST reopens candidates will have a further week in which to complete and submit the test.

    Once again we apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

    To be honest this is not setting a great tone for the rest of this campaign nor does it inspire confidence.

    Waiting anxiously for Thursday now as I'm not sure if I'm one of the impacted candidates. Test cut of before I could close it, didn't recieve confirmation email to say it had been saved on Friday like others who had complete it and have emailed Deloitte twice with no reply!!!

    We always knew something was going to happen with IST since it's their first time doing it online. Everything after this is exactly the same as other years but hopefully alot quicker.
    For the people who have completed ist we are waiting just like we would have been anyway so no change. Anyone still waiting to do it use your time left spent revising.

    Can’t see them spending hundreds of thousands on new websites, recruitment videos and advertisement to then decide 4 weeks in that there gona pull it but hey maybe you know something nobody else does just my opinion, would be pointless really !

    I doubt they will trash the whole campaign, simply because they will need the new intake of officers

    They still got 11 days to meet their deadline, that's saying they get the links out today for the peopel who need them and they will most likely have a week to complete it, so next Thursday will be the end of IST's leaves 4 days to compile results and pass/fail emails

    It does look like this. However, I try to remain confident in that Deloitte will work overtime to ensure emails are all ready to send by the 18th

    At this point I have no faith in Deloitte.

    It's a tender with all costings included. If that tender did not include overtime they they won't be working overtime. Considering it is the subcontracted firm that messed up not Deloitte

    We are pleased to advise that the system will reopen on Friday 8th December and will remain open until 12 noon on Monday 18th December to enable all candidates who have not yet had an opportunity to sit the online test to complete their assessment.

    All candidates who were impacted by the system issues, as well as those who had not had an opportunity to complete their test before the system was closed, will receive a new link to the online test tomorrow (8th December). Please note- all previous links have been cancelled so please use the new link to access your test.

    For information we are now planning to issue results to all candidates during the week commencing 8th January 2018 and start the assessment centre phase the week commencing 22nd January.

    Once again we apologise for any inconvenience that this delay may have caused.

    If yes hopefully you will get something tomorrow. If not, email every day until you get some sort of response.

    Crap that results are being put back. Everything is computerised it would take two seconds for them to sort results out and then they could work 24hrs to get emails sent.

    This process is really sucking the life out of me. I visit doors for TV Licencing for a living. I keep telling myself its just a few more doors until the process moves on and I can leave this job.... and its taking forever. I dont know if I'm going to last the wait...sigh

    Just need to settle in for a long wait. I know they have been saying this campaign is to only last 6 months but that's only for the top scorers. Look at the 1509 campaign. They only got their February start dates handed out this week. That's 2 years 5 months they have been in the recruitment process.

    Yep guys this process is not easy but if you can overcome this then you have proved that you are worthy of becoming a great police officer, I know it's tough but just think how good you'll feel when you get the call.

    Can anyone help me...Ive just tried to do the test on my laptop and when I click the link it says Test already active on another device!
    I have only looked at my emails for this on my laptop and mobile phone. When I click the link on my phone I get the same message.

    Any ideas?? Thanks BB

    It tells you in the Instructions that the same device used to activate the link must be used for the test.

    Try your luck and email Deloitte but I doubt you'll have much luck since it's the weekend. I hope you get sorted.
