Very on edge considering the delays with corona virus, hopefully they extend everyone until this blows over.
Hi m.adz,
In my active hold email they said the 12 months begin from the date of the assessment day. I've read other posts from people who have received emails saying it's from the date of application, and others with no deadline at all. If your email does not mention anything, it'd be best to email and ask.
If it's any consolation I'm also in the same boat. It wouldn't make much sense to restart the entire recruitment process from the beginning, so hopefully they will extend the deadline. Good luck to both of us
