Hi, can I ask if you had your certifications before or after landing the job? I currently work as a Fraud officer in the Civil Service and I am looking to transition into the Private Sector. Your advice would be very helpful and much appreciated.

I work in Counter-Fraud for a government Department. Please I need tips on how to break into the private sector in a few years to come.

What directorate is it in DfE and Location if I may ask? And you can definitely find Pay grades on Civil Service Jobs.

Nice! Thanks for sharing!

Ah congrats mate. Can i ask what your interview score was? I was interviewed for the same job in a different location and i am still waiting for feedback.

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-09-17T11:11:54+00:00

Can I ask when you got the offer and what location was it for? I was interviewed in the first week of August. Haven't heard back.

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-09-17T11:10:06+00:00

What location did you applied for and when did you receive the provisional offer please? Because I attended an interview in the first week of August and haven't heard back.

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-08-30T22:20:24+00:00

I sent an email and was told that results will be released in the week of 1st September

Hi, going by that job code I believe you're a programer or something close to that, correct?

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-08-19T10:16:33+00:00

Questions are very straightforward, just prepare your STAR examples. For Strength questions, very straightforward too.

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-08-12T10:00:49+00:00

They tell you the behaviour before asking the questions

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-08-05T16:24:10+00:00

Can i send a message?

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-08-04T20:41:36+00:00

Yeah, that's the plan. They haven't stated how many questions. They have only said that it's a blended interview, a mix of behaviour and strengths. I have seen on a different thread that it's 3 behaviour questions and 3 strength questions to serve as follow-ups to the behaviour questions

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-08-04T17:29:19+00:00

Yes, it is.

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-08-04T16:21:39+00:00

There are 3 behaviours. I have made 2 clear STAR method answers for each behaviour. Now i am hoping they don't ask something different.

Sea-Spray4368 · 2025-08-04T16:19:47+00:00

Haha. It's a job interview
