I've been invited to an assessment centre with S&S (to my surprise as I thought the online tests went horribly wrong) and I was wondering if anyone who has completed one had any advice on what to expect, particularly with regards to the role play exercise?

Thank you to anyone who replies, this is my first AC so particularly nervous!

Hi Josie,

Congrats on your first AC! Best of luck! I am in the same situation now, I have been invited to do the online test and VI (this is my first ever one!). Please could you advise/give some tips on what I should expect/prepare for?

Thanks!
