Civil Service application to interview score

[Forthegloryofmerlin]

Just out of curiosity can anyone tell me their application scores that led to an interview for civil service? I scored 6/7 in every section, is everyone else getting all or mostly 7s to get interview?

Usually 4 or 5.

However, the threshold for interview can be raised without notification when theres lots of applicants and they wish to sift for the best, stand-out candidates.

Ergo, theres no hard and fast rule inked in black and white. It can and does vary.

Thank you, maybe there were a high number of applicants for that position then. I'll look at ways to try and push up my scores if I see another job advertised.

I helped on a campaign a couple of years ago where one vacancy had 150 applications. To get an interview people had to score the max points possible on each example provided on the form to get an interview.

Wow. I feel like 7s would be so hard to achieve when I'm trying to move up a level.
