I just got called off the interdepartmental panel so anyone 35 or above may be in with a shot of progress before Christmas. Good luck to all going through interviews before Christmas.

Really sorry to those who did not make it through, found the interview tough enough and finished with zero idea of how I did. Would love to know how quickly this will move now - understand from previous posts they are just starting on batch 2 and I think those who did interviews this week are batch 3? Might drop PAS a line.

Practice a lot and time yourself, aim to get your answer out in 2:45 in practice, leaving you extra time in case you stumble etc. In the video. I know a couple of people had notes as prompts, myself included. Just make sure you’re not staring at them all the time, looking up, making eye contact.., like a presentation!

I had my answers on a word document on my laptop. I then used the laptop screen to prop up my phone to record the videos; so the answers were just to the right of the camera. I didn't intend to fully read the answers but I ended up doing pretty much that and I passed; have been an AP now for 4 weeks.

Does anyone know how it works with regards to the open and indepartmental, how do they decide which gets called etc? I got 13 on the open OOM so just trying to get a feel for where that sits in the grand scheme of things! Commiserations to those who didn’t get through, disappointing at the last stage but hopefully it won’t be as hard next time when you’ve been through it before.
