PIRT and Interview

In my last blog I said about my PIRT and Interview for the Police Specials might be in either, November or January, however, last Thursday (or Wednesday) I got a phone call from recruitment asking me if I was available to attend the assessment centre on the 4th of October. Of course I said I would be able to attend, but starting to get really nervous. The amount of forms I have to fill in before hand is unbelievable, medical forms, then security questions and then the core competency questions in which my interview is based around. Which is a lot harder than I first thought, I’m hoping the answers that I have will be enough.

Also got the 5 tests as I mentioned below, I’ve got a book that has practice questions in to help me for this, which I’m going to start working though tomorrow, got my suit ready, just need to get a tie to wear. Part that I’m not looking forward to is having to get at the Headquarters for 8.45am…which is around a 45 minute drive away…really not looking forward to getting up early :( .

Got myself a new laptop today, my old one had been playing up for a while, and was getting out of date, and thought as I had been paid for Feedback Fun over the summer I would treat myself.

Ended up buying this one which I’m rather pleased with, also comes with the Windows 7 upgrade which I’m looking forward to, as I already cant stand Vista.

Not sure when I’ll next be blogging, its my 20th tomorrow so doubt I’ll be doing it then, so maybe before my interview.
