I love following this recruitment thread each year. Everyone gets all excited about applying for the MFS. Everyone gets their hopes up. Lots of questions are asked, further fuelling their confidence then BAM! FAIL.

Then the whinging starts......

Are you in the MFS K99??

Passed my test this morning :-D Bring on the 2nd May.

Will depend on where you are ranked after the interview I would think. Read the info in the Samfs website, it explains how it will work

Thanks Ferret. Have read the website plenty of times and understand how the cab-rank system works.

Any idea when dates and times for the Pat 1 will be announced to the applicants?

Will there be any preference for the applicants that put down Metro, Pirie and Mt Gambier?

One would hope so, aint nowhere else to go apart from those  :-D

Understand that, but i was meaning will be there any preference for those who selected all three in the application to those who only selected Metro / Pirie?

Will there be any preference for the applicants that put down Metro, Pirie and Mt Gambier?

Heard a rumour the license may be changing back to MR for recruitment and then it is employees responisibility to upgrade to HR in first year in job. Might be an idea to check with human resources before going out and getting HR for application.

That would right as I have just finished my HR licence! O well it's done now and don't need to worry about it!

Go to the MFS homepage and up the top right corner type PID in the search box. It is the first item on the list.

Cheers

Thanks Ferret and USAR123 for confirming that. I have now found that info on the MFS website and will have a good read through.

I have a couple other questions to put out there for some responses.....How are most applicants preparing for the Numeracy and Literacy tests and what has been the time frame in the past that the MFS advertise for recruitment to when they actually start testing applicants?

Cheers

Just curious to what 'PID' stands for?

Cheers

Does anyone happen to know the order in which the components of the recruitment takes place?

Cheers

Thanks for your posts.....that's one place I didn't try. I will get onto them and get it sorted.

Hi all,

Just wondering where applicants are receiving their Statement of Attainment for the basic skills for Microsoft applications? I have contacted a handfull employment agencies in Adelaide and i dont seem to be getting anywhere.....Any suggestions?

Cheers
