I'm monitoring website to watch when the applications open (currently just says reopening 2024), given what I have seen online, is it worth applying as soon as they open, even with more than a year (potentially before I can start?) Also if anyone has tips for the online assessments (or any educated guesses on when applications may open) that would be great
My time from applying to sitting Stage 3 was over 6 months (delays in booking a final interview) and I had a 12 month notice period from my job which they were fine with, so I'd say go for it when they open; risk of no recruitment next year, or get a second chance next year if you don't pass this year.
