After reading the comment threads on the interview process seems like I may need to do a lot of thinking. The industry I’m in is completely different to the role I applied for but I have run my own business for the last 10 years + just wanted a change.

Did anything happen with this competition after the first 200 people were called forward, does anyone know? I haven’t heard anything and with my OOM I would have been expecting to have heard something further on this competition long ago let alone at this stage. Weird competition this.
Hi
They recently called the next 200 to proceed to do the one way interview (2nd stage). Deadline 26th or 27th July to do that.
Thanks for the update. Any idea if they only called people for certain local authorities?
I can't find the information booklet for this competition. Could someone post it please?
I want to know how long the competition and panels will last. Does anyone know?
