Hi, Has anyone received a conditional offer to join the 26th of October intake?

Hey all, just wondering if anyone can tell me if doing extra curricular work/reading/learning help me in anyway personally? This book for example How To Become A Police Officer 2015 Version - The ULTIMATE Guide to Passing the Police Selection process (NEW Core Competencies): 1 (How2Become) https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1909229784/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_HJ52vbZ0GH1DJ Or doing an online Level 4 criminal psychology course? Many thanks!

Can anyone who has been given their divisional posting in the past explain if they were given one of their choices or not? And if they had any commitments that may have influenced their postings. Thanks.

This might be a silly question but for the equipment shop at Jackton, is it ok to just turn up or do you need to make an appointment? Just wondering since it's beyond the controlled entry point

Hi guys, Just wondering what peoples financial situations were like during the recruitment process to become a PC? I'm not in the process at the moment but I'm sorting things out for if I'm lucky enough to get through to the financial vetting stages. I have around £2000 in debt (a couple of old accounts and a historic tax bill) that I'm paying off each month which is costing me around £180 a month. I keep all records on a spreadsheet, but I do worry incase this sets me back. What was your financial position like when becoming a regular? Wondering about people in similar circumstances and how that affected things. Many thanks everyone

I have a re-sit of the SET this Friday at jackton, I passed 2 out of the 3 SET and also passed the fitness test, do I have to re-sit everything again or do I only sit the test I failed?

Hi all, Im seriously considering transferring o the Met from A and S area, and am after a little advice regarding living etc. As my 2 children are school age, we would ideally like to live just outside London. Im ideally looking for the shortest commute possible, whilst also trying to work out how I would get home if I finished shift at midnight/start early etc. before trains. Does anyone have any advice on this? thanks Ben

Good evening! I recently applied to become a Met PC (second language pilot scheme) and completed the online assessments last week. I was quite confident I had performed well...until I got the email saying I hadn't reached the pass mark. A total reality check! I must admit I had totally underestimated the online assessments when there is obviously some kind of technique to perform well in them, something I didn't even think about. Luckily, I've been offered the chance to resit them and was wondering if any of you is/ has been in the same position? The email was quite vague and stated the Met is not allowed to give feedback at this stage so I'm not sure if…

Ok......I don't think this question has been raised, so here it goes..... The pre-eligibility stage tests that some forces are putting out, prior to application for Police Officer recruitment. Has anyone had any peculiar dealings with this test? Basically, I've sat the exact same test (with the same videos) 6 months apart and with different forces. Obviously, I can't talk about the very nature if the scenarios involved, but the feedback offered does go some way to explaining where you need to improve for the next time. I had 2 very good scores, but 2 low areas that had let me down 6 months ago, so had therefore failed. So, within my feedback, I've analysed this and …

Hi, I submitted my application form about a week ago and received the confirmation email that it's been received and it'll be dealt with in due course. So, now I'm starting to prep for the SETs, fitness and interview all in the hope I get to that stage!! I've been dipping in and out of here over the last few weeks and have a couple of random questions (that will actually only be relevant IF I get in!). What is on the list of supplies that folk seem to be buying to take to Tulliallan with them and, specifically for those living close to Tulliallan, are you staying over or going home each night now they seem to be giving us the choice? Best of luck to everyone at the …
