Civil Svc/ Statboard - Typical Timeline for making a Hiring Decision

Same situation. G50 not required. Most likely waiting for top candidate to pass screening, medical etc then reject the rest. Based on past experience, if they want you, they can move vvery fast. Fastest I had was 3 weeks, longest with g50 3.5 months.

When seeking approval, they don't do it for a pool. PS level sub is usually final candidate.

Did HR also mention that they will be giving you updates by a certain timeline?

coming to end of thursday and 1 Aug

again, nothing
despite applying

apply and apply
don't know what these Min or SB want

they ask for doc & g50 form filled up
i give as requested
they clarify questions with me
i answer as requested

was told they r surfacing submission to clear with their HR director and onward to PS
to formalise the indicative offer
only for retraction initiated by the hiring department after approval was sought
and no candidate was hired in the recent recruitment drive

and best part, the same opening was published for hiring just a few days ago
