Going through application process for FCO B3 Operational Officer at the moment? How did u find scenario tests?

Question

do you expect to pass? have you had your results yet? i'm still waiting.......... what do you expect the FCO to be like as a workplace? especially the 3 years in London?

Answer 1

I hope to pass. The F C O seems good - my brother is there. Likes it very much. Promotion prospects are good. He found it best to apply for EVERY job within the F C O. Stands you in good stead and gets you noticed. Based on the fact "Not this bloke again". Also very good social life. You will enjoy it.
Scenario tests were rather mundane. On my original appl. form, I put SEX (M/F)........ YES. At least they have a sense of humour. Good luck to you.
