Was there only one post?
Yes, 7 interviewed, but I have heard there is another job coming up next month
I know the roles involved, no headphones, I have 20 years of experience in customer service, 15 as a manager, headphones are a f***ing pain, but not the end of the world
Hopefully this, nobody noticed how highly shined my doc martin brogues were.f***ing disgraceful
What is your definition of ‘service’ mate.
What exactly is service?
Used to work in civil service, interviews are basically who can tell the best bullshit to fit the competency. It shows by the people who get promoted, shite at their jobs but can say the right things to tick the boxes.
An old manager of mine when interviewing for some new staff said one who was offered a job was a brilliant interview but she had no clue whether anything the candidate said was true, but it ticked all the boxes.
For the record the new starter was shit, couldn’t even file stuff away correctly.

You claimed 20 years experience in “customer service”
What is your definition of “customer service”,pal.
That’s all I’m asking.
Must be a specific/specialist post ?
The vast majority of recruitment are for generic trawls
Hello "Pal" fuck off and find someone who wants to discuss it with you
This was a specific role, I am working in the establishment at the moment
Received exactly the same years ago. Never heard anything afterwardsI got the email below, someone said its a "merit" email and the next job of that grade should be mine, anyone know anything about this "Merit" thing?
"

Thank you for your interest in this position."
Yes mate the competency based interviews. I am on a reserve list for DWP at an AO level job, came out thinking the interview was terrible and I had no chance. I recently went to an EO level interview at Washington for HMRC, came out confident as I have ever been and scored miserably, 2s&3s
Join the Masons ..work for the rest of your lifeMeans you should start practising some pen pushing exercises just in case
Yep I hate the competency set up, I have recently been successful at one, but still think they shit.
Years ago put in the same competencies in for two different jobs, scored high in one and low in another!
