yeah, as soon as i hear from them-i'll give you the info. Stay calm and i reckon all will be fine. My guess is recruitment is becoming more just like the financial markets now. Leave allowance for surprises always.

Hi paadjei,
Could you please tell me if there are 2 tests: 1 numerical reasoning and 1 verbal reasoning? and if it's possible to take the practice test one day and do the real test another day? or you have to do them one after another?
Thank you!!

Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone has attended the assessment day this year? I have got mine this Thursday and I was wondering if anyone had any advice on what might come up in the numerical/verbal tests? Any advice will be appreciated.

I did not have to do an online test. They ask you to come in and do the test in-house. I think some people will be having these over the next two days.

I completed the online tests for OW on the 28th September, and I was wondering if anyone else has completed the tests and if they have heard if they have been selected for an interview? The interview dates seem to be on the 17/18th November, and the email i received said i would hear by the 11th of November at the latest.
