[@houghtonmatt]

Thankyou for your content. I have my online assessment for Staffordshire Police in approx 6 weeks time and you are the only person providing answers for my questions.

That’s great to hear Matt - are you part of our Academy? This is just a foundation!!

[@houghtonmatt]

@ I am unsure! I applied to Staffordshire Police through the PCEP and passed the National Sift last week.

I'm in the same position as you Matt, passed the national sift, finding this very helpful. @bluelightconsultancy how do you join the academy you offer?

Will they not be looking for buzz words from the CVF when you are answering the questions?

I passed my OAC, not sure to what standard if I just scraped by or passed by a margin. But for my answers I releted most of my actions to legislation, and basic levels of common sense, as you are not a Police officer they cannot expect you to respond exactly like one, all they are looking for is a strong character and someone who can use common sense and intuiotion to solve situations. Me personally I would aviod Buzz words especially "interview" specific buzz words.
