Good evening ladies and gentlemen,
I've recently finished my University degree in Arabic and Russian language and I'm currently going through the selection process for Operator Technical intelligence (OPTI). I have passed my initial assessment at Glencourse in October and I have the second part of my selection on the 9th of December. Beforehand, this was going to be a 3-day selection at Chicksands (Bedfordshire) where I would complete all the examinations e.g aptitude tests, MLAT test, current affairs discussion, interview and presentation. However, due to the Coronavirus, aptitude tests and the interview will be conducted online; upon successful completion of this I will (again hopefully) attend a 1-day course in Chicksands as opposed to the 3-day course.
The problem I'm having at the moment is that I've not heard anything for int corps in weeks, they haven't given any information help prepare for these assessments nor tell me what they're generally about. I'm fully aware that the Int Corps is very private and information is confidential, however, I would have at least expected a phone call from them or to receive the joining instructions considering its only 10 days away. So hopefully you guys could help me out with this a little bit.
Are the tests IQ tests?
Do they involve complex maths questions - will I need a calculator?
Spatial reasoning?
Verbal reasoning?
Mechanical comprehension?
How will the online tests be conducted, skype or zoom etc?
Moreover, with regards to the interview, what is the main theme? do they want you to know as much as possible about the Int Corps and with they test you thoroughly on the history, past operations/ current operations? or is the interview more about myself? Also, regarding the presentation, is it on current affairs or is it about myself?
I understand that the answers to these questions may be confidential, however, if they're not please feel free to answer them.
Thank you and I hope everyone is staying safe.
P.S its
