Recruitment 2021 (Closed)

Did anyone else get told Deloitte would be in contact within 3 weeks ?

Does that mean results 🥴🥴 ? No idea

in the ac they say they will be in touch within 3 weeks for feedback purposes only. So my guess is that it’ll be a feedback form they would like you to fill out about how the day was structured and if there would be any changes that might help with future recruitment

I got 2 emails. First one was that I passed AC and summary of your score. And 2nd with ML position

Got summary 7 months after AC date and another email, with merit position week after 1st email

I never understood why you could never be told on the day of your AC if you passed or failed.. surely there’s no need for the long wait. Obviously it doesn’t come down to funding because every campaign is the exact same when waiting unless fast tracked.

But how is a merit list formed when I hadn’t even done my AC but my friend was fast tracked and was given a merit position?

No idea! Certain people were fast tracked but I have never understood how when all of the applicants hadn’t finished! The 2020 campaign is still ongoing, personally I can’t see anyone in this campaign being fast tracked as they no longer have a budget for recruitment.

If the pass mark is already pre determined at say 70% and everyone who attends the assessment centre hits that mark then the merit list would end up with a couple of thousand people on it, they only ever want it to have 1000 or so, which is why the pass mark is set after everyone has been marked to keep it around that number

The pass mark will be generated after the AC is concluded. This is where they will get their benchmark just like any exam such as gcse or a levels. If every does really well then likely chances are the pass mark will be high but if everyone has done badly the mark will be lower. Last year the pass mark was 61.25% previous years they’ve been around 50’s. With fast track I think you get an email saying your going through but no merit number yet. Just means ur on the top of the list to go through the next stages first. After all if you did well say high score (A+), an A+ is still an A+ regardless of having to wait til everyone has finished their AC. So what I mean is if your AC was say 90% your more than likely going through.

Youll still get fast tracked as it's done in groups, if you do the AC last and have a high score you will still be put through the remaining stages before those who sat it before you.

There's nothing fast about fast track anyway, it really makes little difference. Just do your AC, get your score and go through the stages when you go through them.

You still have over 400 remaining from the 2020 campaign in front of you so fast track will mean little

I’m actually in the 2020 campaign so believe me I’m well aware of the pace their recruitment runs in lol! But my friend was fast tracked a year before me and she knew she was being fast tracked even though I hadn’t sat my AC.

I recently did my AC and felt like I did much better than last time, so fingers crossed!

BUT, has anyone who has recently attended remember if they had to put their UID number on the top of the final written report sheet? Or was it only written on the action plans?

I can't remember if I wrote it on or not and its making me paranoid that it wouldn't get marked lol

The staff would probably have pointed it out on collection, if it wasn't written on. But I just don't remember lol 🤦‍♂️

I have my AC this week.

Getting a bit nervous hope I dont mess It up. Any advice?

You’re going for the position of a Police Constable, not a career in Acting don’t worry about how you’ll perform in that aspect.

If you feel like you haven’t performed well on a task, forget it and move onto the next one and use that as a fresh start ( Seriously, you can’t go back so don’t worry about it! )

Time keeping is one of the biggest factors within the AC and you’ll be surprised how quickly it can go when you’re there.
