Is not having Senior Level Maths a deal breaker? Have a Year 12 Senior Certificate, but not a pass in the the required Maths?

So we've all heard the nightmare stories of people being on hold for ages and never hearing a thing. For a bit of balance is there anyone out there who can quote a case of minimum time on the hold file? I've been hearing 2 months seems to be the 'perfect' outcome people are experiencing at the moment.

Historically they take the people that they want the most for each course. Some may come from the hold file, whilst others are never in it. And they clean the hold file out every now and then too.

What do you mean by clean the hold file?

If you get the call up, you wouldn't give two-hoots where the training is done!

I had to laugh today. Person gets offered level 2 interview. Explains that they have just clicked over enough hours for DE. HR tells this person to withdraw the trainee application and lodge a DE application.

Two weeks later gets an email saying sorry your not competitive for a DE position!!!

Sounds believable. Nothing surprises or disappoints me anymore.

Did anyone get a September start? I have heard of no one and am thinking they are not running a course? DE or Traineeship. How many are on the hold file now?

Does anyone know?

I'd say calm down, based on the past I'd expect the calls for a September course if it happens to go out this week

There will be a September, October and December course run this year. Not sure of 2018 plans.
