I did 2 (or was it 3) 'Assessment Centres' for management jobs with NATS having 'rescued' an Air Training Corps Squadron from oblivion by my management practices by treating the cadets as 'young adults' instead of children.
It was pretty obvious the centres were just whitewash, going through the motions and that the decision was made before the assessment started; needless to say I was never selected as I got the label 'not a people person' on my records from somewhere, (never did figure out who or why).
