Alot of factors: depends on which grades to which, past performances (2 consecutive Bs) and how much ur MIC justifies for u.

Promo letter probably next week but ur MIC already knows and should have informed promotees privately

you ppl should chill on the competencies, it doesnt directly correlate to promotion.

If the bosses want to promote you, they will help you get L3. If they don't want to promote you, you everything L3 also no use.

Competency assessment is a waste of time. Just paperwork. Cowards don’t dare to take skillset tests or leet coding tests.

Guess 80% of engineers of Grade I and above will fail tests. Many of them just talk but don’t code or already obsolete since no hands-on for too long. When there is issue, they just arrow junior staff to fix without any understanding of the problem.
