Hi guys,
As the topic says, I've got my assessment next week down at Support HQ, and I would really appreciate any advice or tips to suceed at this first stage! I've been reading and matching the core competences to relevant past events in my life, but do you guys think I should have 2 for each, just in case?
Also, this may sound a bit silly, on my invite letter, it says the assessment will be held in the Osborne Quarters/Blocks, however, looking from Google maps, the directions supplied seem to be a bit confusing. Am I right in thinking that once you've parked up in the student car park, you turn left, up the road towards Osborne Close by a mini roundabout?
Thanks! 
Hey mate,
In regards to having two past events in your life to each competencies, by all means do it! When it comes to your interview you need to make sure that what you say is a strong event tied to that competency, so having the choice between two really ups your chances!
As to the directions to the Osborne Quarters, FidelChazztro summed it up pretty well! Head to the student car park which is next to a big field (It's opposite the gym and has parking spaces, what ever you do, don't park by the gym!). Walk down the road to the left, pass the barrier, turn left at the junction which is sign posted as "Osborne Quarters", walk down this road and follow it round to the right which is where you will come across different blocks. My assessment took place in block D, but this could change. However, just look out for signs that say "Special Constable Assessment" or something along those lines to make sure you get the right building!
Best of luck mate, keep practicing some situational examples and your competencies!
