Hi Guys, I've recently found out that my file is complete and is now sitting with intake team.. Having spoken to them, I understand that the septemeber intake is full and has a waiting list of people who are on it for any cancelations.. The next intake is October 12th but they have not decided on the number of people they want for it yet and hence the delay for anyone still waiting.. Is anyone else curently in the same boat?? Has anyone heard any different?? Any news on the october intake or if you have been given a confirmed start for october would be really appreciated.. thanks...

Hi pps... I have my interview on the 14th Aug! I will do my best to pass...I have been studying hard and reading up on the GMP website.....although I really want to pass I was just wondering... I remember the lady at our awareness evening saying your Assessment Center results are valid for a year... If I fail my final interview is it possible to transfer my AC results to another force that doesn't have a Final Interview process??? Was also wondering for all you out there who have done your interview what they do when its over...do they give you a fitness date there and then or do they ask you to wait outside etc??? Thanks guys Lou x

Hi. I have a series of written tests and also an interview this saturday (15/8/09) at Wakefield. This assessment is for a role as a Speacil Constable. I was wondering if anyone out there has sat these tests/interview and could give any advice. For the written tests i know they will be a mixture of maths, english and also scenarios to work from. For the interview i know they will ask me why i want the job/what would it involve. Anything im missing? All replies would be much appreciated S.D

I know I should know this already but is the medical for GMP on the same day as the fitness and if not when do i need to fill in the medical forms they sent me? thanks

My timeline: 1st Feb - Attended recruitment event in Trafalgar Sq Mid March - Application received, completed and sent back June 15th - Day 1 - passed July 21st - Day 2 - passed Cant wait for a training start date...

ive recently been PMd a number of questions regarding any stuff thatd be usefull to learn whilst in the seemingly never ending wait for a start date. and thought id just put it on here so you could all share. apologies for its length but wanted to answer everything.... you do not have to do any pre training study as theyll teach you everything you need to know. HOWEVER-if you do a little before you start it will make a lot more sense when you do get round to it and bring down the stress levels when theyre trying to cram a million things in your head per week. like i said a while ago on another topic-look at the three core topics(apart from road traffic)which …
