I'm pretty sure I read that 1 DUI won't exclude you but if you were to have 2 DUI in the 10 year period you wouldn't be considered.

Has anyone who was unsuccessful in the interview received feedback as to why they weren't successful? I received and responded to the email around January requesting to be informed 'later in the year' but yet to hear anything myself.

I'd also think they wouldn't want to give feedback that could potentially be used to inform candidates currently being interviewed now.

Has anyone received "feedback" from their interviews??

No still waiting for feedback

I hear invites for interview may have been sent out yesterday to those in the pool that had successfully completed PAT1.

Yeah it was a hard interview and I left it feeling like I hadn't done well.

OK so I didn't have to wait until the New Year  :-D I just received an email saying I was unsuccessful in the interview process and I could register my interest to receive feedback on my interview in the new year.
All the best to those still in the process.

I've emailed HR a couple of times and have received responses from them fairly promptly - the last response was today and it just seems like they're busy sorting through the 1st squad and we will 'receive notification as soon as possible'. Looks like we just need to be patient, enjoy Xmas and wait for a response in the new year.

No haven't heard anything

So have those who have been interviewed but not made it to the pat2 been notified of where they stand in the overall picture?

Nope

Well done mate on progression to PAT2. One question: Do you know if your references were contacted or will that be later?

Received an email invitation to contest PAT 2 next week. Scattered around this in space and time are a few provided testing appointments - hearing, respiratory and what I assume is a general medical.  Excited but also nervous and definitely feeling like I have been very lucky.

The timeframe is really short on this, which makes negotiating four appointments around work kind of tricky!

Has anyone heard how long interviews are going on for and whether anyone has had a PAT 2 call up?

Pac - Yes beep Tuesday and received interview email this afternoon

8am Tuesday had 30 out of 32 attend. 2 groups of 7, 2 groups of 8. 1st group I think 1 pulled out injured. 2nd group all passed. Unsure about remaining groups. I haven't received any notifications since.

I received my PAT1 email last night but have heard along the grapevine that it hasn't been finalised yet - possibly only Tuesday's runners have been notified so sounds like still hope left. My mate also got an email and our last names are at opposite ends of the alphabet. I sat profiling on the 4th and he was on the 10th so no rhyme or reason it seems. All the best to everyone still waiting.

Has anyone heard anything today? Rereading the notification email it reads as if only the people chosen to do PAT1 will receive an email, not unsuccessful candidates.

Not yet. I heard there is still testing this week. Only tested a couple of days last week I'm led to believe.

Does anyone have any idea when the last group going through the profiling testing is and how long after that will we be notified whether we have successfully (or not) made it through to the PAT1?

I completed my testing on Tuesday 4th (afternoon). Obviously they need to collate everyone's results to pick the top 4 - 500 to progress?

Cheers
