I'm expecting a phone interview in Dec/Jan. If that goes well I assume it means travelling to MEL for testing. Does anyone have any reasonable idea when I could expect the training course to begin? ie leaving current employment and moving interstate. Not counting on me getting in but the more idea I have about things the better!
As a guide (but always subject to change):-
The current round are, in theory, going to fill the January, February and April courses. On that basis (and assuming no overflow from this round) one could guess the next round would be to fill courses from mid May onwards.
I would assume testing would be in MEL and BNE as it was last time.
This would of course be subject to any number of possible changes.
The GM of HR has just been awarded permanent gardening leave. Whatever this means for training/recruitment, and consequently timelines for future/planned courses is anyones guess.
Could that be the first thing to start influencing the timetable? Time will tell.
