    Does anyone know where you can get examples of the aptitude tests the HSE use?

    I have to assume because it's going through public jobs it'll be the ones on the pas website. I don't think there was a mention of them on the email they sent out

    No they said they were going to be sending us practise materials. I think the HBS are doing this campaign. I didn't apply through public jobs.

    But it's just I'm thinking they are giving us very little time when they send the practice material the invitation to do the actual tests will probably be soon after so it's pretty annoying.

    I got an email on the 4th of February saying they would be sending practice material.

    I hope we hear something this week about when we'll be sitting the tests. It feels very mysterious compared to the Civil Service process!

    This is a huge competition so very unlikely to move quickly.

    The EO competition is big and that's moved pretty quick this time around.

    Same here but they got my surname wrong! Did you also get a text? The email said to notify them if no text received. I didn't get one yet.

    Got a corrected email, I don't understand why they are only leaving the practise material available till the 13th of march even though you have until 29th of march to the actual assessment, why are they doing that? The more days available to practise the better.

    You can only do the practice once. In one sitting

    I asked myself that question many times while reading the email. What a bunch of clowns.
