    Just wanted to say a thank you to those who posted comments on here yesterday about the budget speech as I was directly asked about it in my assessment centre today and probably wouldn't have looked at it during my preparation yesterday otherwise 🤣

    CMS Assessment Centre

    My AC had a variety of applicants who had applied to different offices- although this was a fast-tracked AC from the First Steps Scheme and all the offices were Scottish so I couldn't say for sure if general AC's differ! Good luck :)

    I honestly wouldn't be because so many people have done the same! I only know myself and another friend of mine who was on the same webinar that included them- it was really difficult to figure the application out I think that was why I had queried it! I'm sure you've smashed it- good luck!
