Made it through to Assessment centre in Leeds next week.

Wish me luck! I'm nervous already as this means a lot to me. I did a year Plumbing at college ten years ago when I left school, but jacked it in when I saw my mates earning £200 a week full time, when I was working part time around college earning £70! What a silly boy I was!

Any tips or pointers for the face to face interview part?

I feel ok with the practical bit and the role play I think, but unsure what to expect in the interview with HR!

I'm also attending the Leeds facility next week for the same role but in a different location to you.

Hope all goes well!

Good luck to you too

I didn't make it.

Did well on mechanical reasoning test, and fine in the team work exercise, but they said I didn't give the answers they wanted in the Face to face competency based interview.

I'm still determined to get into the plumbing trade, however it may be a little harder now as age is against me.

I might reapply after the 6 months has lapsed.

Good luck everyone else.
