Regulars

I am currently transfering into the MET and have been told that I will be going to Hammersmith and Fulham. Can any one tell me what it is like. And what shift pattern they do??

Hi I'm new to this site and this is my first post. I've just sent off my application to GMP a week ago and awaiting a response. Was just wondering if anybody had been on the 'Talking Blues' recruitment one day course and if they found it useful? Was planning on going on the course if and when I pass the paper sift process. Would appreciate any replies

Anyone been recently for the L&B asses day? Have mines coming up next month and would be grateful for any info!

Hi all, I’m looking to apply to the police sometime in the next 12months. Is there anyone out there who could give me an idea of advantages and disadvantage of applying to a large/ small force. I’m looking at North Yorkshire/ Lincolnshire (which have relatively small towns and cities), and South Yorkshire/ Nottinghamshire (larger). Just want to try and get an idea of differences in opportunities to specialise/ promotion, differences in workload if any, different social aspects, etc… Any advice would be really helpful. Oh, and out of interest what are peoples opinions on any of these 4 forces?

Hey Guys! I got my date for the A/C for GMP this morning, its on the 24th April at 12.45pm! Anyone else going on the same date? Wish me luck! Cheers.

Had my a/c today and had to do the role plays first, was unbeleivably nervous and when i walked into the first scenario started speaking and then was completely lost for words!!!! i sat there and said nothing for about a minute i think!! i then quickly recovered and carried on, has this happened to anyone else?? do you think i have ruined my chances???? :cry:

I have my assessment centre next week and was wondering about the type of questions that they ask you in the interview. Are they similar to the CBQ's? And can you use the same answers as CBQ's? [/b]

Did anyone get "Sorry i didnt realise" in one of their role plays??? I wont go into too much detail but it was regarding a security guard in one of the role plays, when i challenged him he said this, do you think that means i was being too aggressive? :? oh he said it a couple of times

I got my results!!!!! I PASSED!!!!!!!!!!!! just want to say a big thank you for everyones help!!!!! interview now in a couple of weeks i'm bouncing off the walls

I passed my A/C for Surrey yesterday. Did anyone else sit their A/C for Surrey on the 21st March? If so, give us a shout

I know this is a bit of a broad question but I have got my A/C for West Mercia next week, has anyone got any top tips?

Just a quick message to say thankyou to everyone who offered me advice on this forum- i managed to get 86% at my assessment centre. Good luck to anyone who's about to take it...its not as scary as you think.

So, its finally here! My Day 1 is on Wednesday at 8am at Hendon. I know what I'm going to be doing and have pre-prepared answers for the interview, written out and repeated my answers to myself... I've tried swotting up on the maths but its just not happening, so have to wing that one! What I'd like to know is, how long does it take from start to finish? Knowing the Met, I'm likely to be there for 8 hours rather than 4.5 the book quotes!

im nervous about getting my reults so just putting this up ready for the news or if you feel sick waiting lets hear about it.
