I applied online. I interviewed at Dorset Police (Winfrith Newburgh, England) in Jun 2014
Interview
The assessment day lasted for 5 hours and included a memory tests in which they played radio broadcasts and then you had to write down what you remembered, a listening test in which you listened to police radio broadcasts and wrote down key details, a 999 role play in which you took a mock 999 call and were required to ask the necessary questions, a typing test, a short interview and a group exercise which was a decision making test but obviously what they are actually testing you on is how well you work in a team.
