March assessment

Hi guys,
Just wondering if anyone who had an assessment day in March has heard anything either positive or negative yet? The waiting is killing me!

[stevep64]

Fifi, if you had your assessment late in March, then you still have a couple of weeks to wait. It took 6 weeks before I heard anything.

[cadetkid]

Yeah still nothing here (march assessment). Not to concerned though, but it would be nice to know :P Im more worried about my references being contacted, that would be the first sign I would think as to whether its a good outcome. The longer it takes though the more the seed of doubt gets put in my mind.

[cadetkid]

Application still under review. Suppose thats better then unsuccessful at the moment :P

You won't hear anything until they have checked all the references for the people going into your group. One reference for one person can delay the whole process.

Good luck to the peeps undertaking interviews in Melbourne this week.

Has the Melbourne Assessment Day been scheduled? I haven't heard anything.

I was told I would do an assessment in May, and they would let me know 2-3 weeks beforehand.

Hey cadetkid,

Did you do your assessment day in Sydney or Melbourne? I had my assessment day on March 7th in Sydney and, one of my references was contacted but, that was a couple weeks ago and I haven't heard anything since.

[cadetkid]

Hey canuck, I did mine in brisbane late march, so a few weeks after you.

[Zilberfish]

I was in the March 5th assessment centre in Syd and still no word since my referee was called two weeks ago. I logged into my application and it just says 'reference check complete'... no news is good news, so far... apparently!

[EnglishCurryClub]

Looked like they were doing interviews in Melbourne this week. Rang into a few staff that did them when I went for the roles.

[Blackgoat]

I guess there will be another assessment in Melbourne in May, at least that was what I was told.

How do they advise you of the assessment day? By phone or by email? Anyone else waiting for a Melbourne Assessment in May? I did my phone interview in mid-March.

[CanuckInOz]

Same here Zilberfish. References contacted and my application status also says "reference check complete"

I hope we find out soon; this not knowing is torture!

They told us that it could take up to a few months to find out, is that what they told your group as well?

[cadetkid]

My group got told 2 weeks for references and 4 weeks until they contact you to tell you, but I knew it would be longer then that anyway. I dare say you guys probably arent far from hearing from them! Good luck

[CanuckInOz]

Thanks cadetkid, same to you. I'll be sure to update here as soon as I find out.

[stevep64]

I wonder if the "reference check complete" thing is new. I didn't see that when I was waiting to hear. Maybe they got sick of people ringing them up for an update

I hope we find out soon; this not knowing is torture!

You got that right.

[Blackgoat]

I'll ask again, has anyone been told they are having their assessment day in May, and have you been notified of the date?

I'm worried I haven't heard anything yet. Going to be overseas for the next week as well. Are you notified by phone or email?

[stevep64]

Are you notified by phone or email?

I was notified by email.

[thequestor2000]

Initially I was going to be on an Assessment Day in May. But I got an email a few weeks ago asking me to attend the April one. They must have had someone drop out.

I was notified 11 days before my assessment day, by email. I then had to login and choose the day (Mon, Tues or Wed). You will probably hear something in the next couple of weeks.

[Blackgoat]

Thanks Thequestor. That was really helpful. Hopefully you did well in your assessment.

[thequestor2000]

I hope so too. It was a fun day and the 6 of us got along really well (had quite a few laughs).

If any of the guys who went to the Monday session are reading.....I have heard that the part where we get to carry each other out of the burning building is now completed in the main training component....certain participant excluded because he has a bad back.
