Hello, do you have any OSG interview questions, many thanks
thanks
I just passed mine a week ago and I’m on the merit list. Your videos were helpful .. scoring 64%,is it guaranteed I’ll get the job after passing the test?
About to do mine now.....yikesssss I’ll be back with an update later folks
IM BACK!!
Logged in at 12:40, didn’t actually start till about 13:15. Finished at 4pm including breaks. It’s all done via Zoom, and an assessment tool call Tazio. You need a PC, keyboard & Mouse for Tazio. I had to do the Zoom part via my ipad and the actual assessment on the pc, due to microphone issues.
2x Role plays - Zoom
Inmate scenario, actor plays the role. There’s a script to read to give you the scenario, you let them know you’re ready to start and the actor goes straight into character.
Written Test - Tazio
40 mins to write a report highlight the issues and give recommendations. Again you are given a scenario document to read, READ IT FULLY! you have 2 questions to answer in 40 mins, no word limit. Just depends how fast you can type.
Numerical Test - Tazio
Same as the first test previously done, multiple questions, 4 possible answers, 10 mins to do, calculator allowed.
Interview - Zoom
Strength based questions only. 2 warm up questions, 5-6 questions thereafter.
It’s not that difficult , just know you way around the Zoom app & you will be fine. Although it’s virtual, and you are in a group, there is a facilitator always checking in & it went really smoothly. Just makes sure your equipment and WiFi works, pen and a note pad, and your application id number (you’ll find this in the emails) and that’s it!
Also make sure you have the ORIGINAL right to work ID DOCUMENTS you uploaded to the justice jobs portal. That’s the first thing they’ll want to check, before you can even start. Hope this helps
Good Luck Everyone 😊❤️
Thanks so much for sharing! I hope it went really well :)
@@mattd8621 I forgot to add it’s not in that order, I did my role plays first whilst others did their interviews & numerical test. The only thing we done together as a group was the written exercise. Regarding the role plays....yes you are right. It’s very true to a real life prison scenario, swearing, shouting. I’ve previously worked in a prison, so the actors are very good. I corrected one for swearing, simply told them I would not tolerate being spoken to that way, shall we start again? The actor was like ok sorry but.....
😂😂😂
@@mattd8621 3 working days....all the areas are scored. So I should know by Thursday next week x
@@justbreal5797 let us know how you get on! Just been invited for mine!
@@giveyourheadawobblee it’s really not that hard....just be yourself.....don’t rehearse any answers. They even tell you that. But I cannot stress enough how important it is the read the written test document fully xxx good luck Hun you’ll be fine, anyway if you don’t pass you can always apply again, in 6mths....or apply for an OSG role xx

How long did it take for you to get offered a position as a PO or you still waiting ?
@Milky Socks hiya it took under 4 months from starting my application to day 1 of being a prison officer. Waiting time also depends on your vetting and the establishment you applied to.
This video sure helped me to pass my two interviews, so thank you Richard!
Great job!

Great job!

Hi Richard I have a question for you about the prisoner demonstrating threatening behavior. What if it's a similar situation but instead of 1 inmate it's 2 inmates demonstrating threatening behaviors or arguing furiously and on the verge of a physical confrontation for example and you are by yourself trying to de-escalate the situation, do you call for backup immediately or you wait? Thank you in advance!
Hi, yes I would say I would call for back up immediately and then observe their actions to see when I can safely intervene in a calm manner and by using the right style of communication.
Please would you SUBSCRIBE to my channel? I'd very much appreciate your support. Thank you! Richard 🙏
@@CareerVidz sure i will and thank you again!
When I joined in 1975, I applied in may and was working by July, everything was done in one day and you were told there and then if you were in.probably wouldn’t get in under today’s criteria!!
I agree! Everything was much simpler. I joined the Fire Service in 1993 and it was a faster process.

@@CareerVidz sure
I applied for the First-time recruitment scheme and have my Online Assessment Centre on 13/11/23. For HMP Wandsworth. Feel fully prepared now. Thank you.
You're most welcome! Please do let me know how you get on :)
@@CareerVidz Thank you Richard, I will 😊
@@jordanlyons8453 How did the online assessment go? what questions were you asked too?
In regards to remaining calm and composed whilst under pressure, does anyone think it's a good idea mentioning raising a family as experience?
Hi! I think this is an acceptable answer - you could always give a real life example and then a work life example also :) Best of luck!
What I need to do in my online assessment centre after applying for prison officer job and getting online result.
Thanks for your comment! Please could you clarify what you mean? :)
Watching this video has given me the confidence for my interview. Thank you.
Best of luck!

Good luck x
Don’t bother you won’t like the job and most new guys jack it in after a few months the pay ain’t what it used to be you don’t get to help any inmates most of them are useing spice and out of there nuts all day also due to staffing levels and drastically short staffed most inmates are locked up for 23 hours a day only getting out to go to the hot plate or half hour outside exercise as long as it’s not raining you will be used and abused trust me and the inmates don’t treat you much better unless your going to be a guvnor don’t bother being a prison officer did you know the average life expectancy of a retired prison officer is four years think about that please find another path to go down as being a prison officer is not a good choice
I have my assessment on the 5th September and revising this video

Also what were some of the interview questions
@@mattd8621 wasn’t hard at all, the interview were strength based and the role plays were quite relaxed
@@mattd8621 no, you’ll all be assigned a different assessor for the interview and two different actors for the role plays
I really didn't expect to pass stage 1&2. I'm 45 and been a support worker for years but I'm looking for a new challenge in my life. Can you give me anymore tips on how to pass on nervous and waiting for interview date I would really appreciate any info you can pass on to me. Many thanks
Well done!! More tips here:

I'm terrified now I truly never thought I'd pass any stage test at my age. Just hope I can go all the way and become a prison officer I've looked after people with mental health issues for years under the mental health act and I'm trained in pvma techniques and de-escalation situations but I'm truly terrified waiting for my email for my date. Thanks
Hi well done!
I’ve recently just turned 25 and was surprised to pass the 2 stages too! The Game based assessment was a bit challenging but got the email waiting for email with available dates to to the ARC or VAC test. I’m so nervous. I wish you I the best of luck xx

Are those questions are the real questions at the teal assesment day ?
thanks a lot it is very helpful
WELCOME!

For the role plays, would it be acceptable to interrupt if the actor is swearing, or would that not be suspending judgement.
I would, in a professional, calm but assertive manner.
Quick Question: How long did it take for everyone to find out whether or not you passed? And do they tell you if you haven’t passed too?
It is my understanding that this varies, but hopefully someone here can help with a recent answer for you.
I found out I passed online assessment today... any idea what happens next it's very vague
Just finished mine hopefully I’ll hear back soon!
GOOD LUCK! I hope you PASS!
Did u pass?

Any tips for the OSG interview?
Hi I’ve been told by the host after my assessment 3 days but I’ve still not heard anything when speaking to someone from the site online they said they shouldn’t of told me 3 days as it’s one department that deals with all the assessments across the country for all the prisons so there’s no timescale does anyone know how long it takes to get my results back now at all ? And btw your videos helped me massively in doing well on the online assessment so thank you
Glad the video has helped and I am sorry to hear you haven't heard back yet! I am sure it won't be much longer!
@@CareerVidz I passed my online assessment thanks a lot for the help just awaiting my vetting check then good to go thanks again
Any tips for Operational Support Grade interview?

Yes, similar.
Hey there, great to see so many people passing their assessments and great tips for interviews.
I have my online assessment a week tomorrow, extremely nervous about it tbf! Comfortable with the maths, think I'll be okay with the role plays (are they similar role plays as there are 2?)
I'd say the interview and English especially is freaking me out ha! Can someone offer me some advice please ha! Thanks in advance. X
GOOD LUCK!
@@CareerVidz thank you :) x
@inactiveblank thank you for the advice! Very much appreciated. Means so much so want to make sure I don't mess up.
How far are you with the application? (if applied)
@inactiveblank thank you lovely! ☺️
Well done you! I'm sure you'll be in your training soon enough! 😁😁💪
@inactiveblank Hey! Congratulations 👏 Are you able to give the role play examples that you had?
Had my ARC yesterday your videos helped me prepare. That being said watch out... I had some very very random questions 😣😣
What questions did you get? Fingers crossed!!!
@@CareerVidz I got the job 👍 well pending the vetting process 👍👍 one of em was explain your perfect Saturday. Totally threw me off I wasn't expecting such a simple yet complex question 🙃 another was how would you de stress after a bad day on the wings.. I was more focused on the why do you want the job kind of questions rather than those type of questions..
Does anyone know if you do the role plays in front of the group on zoom?

Has anyone actually passed unlocking the safe? I have managed to get to the 2nd number on row 4.🤷🏼♀️
I believe your referring to the test on skyrisecity app? I also only could go as far as the first number on row 4..after 45 mins of trying i gave up n moved on.. however i still was successful enough to move onto the next stage so dont feel stressed about that :)
i think is not about to unlock, is about how many times you was trying to do that, probably is how perseverance you are.
I used a tool that slowed down javascript applications and got it open LMAO
Hi Richard
Need your suggestion,
I applied for the position of correctional officer, i got email to appear for online psychometric test which has like 500 questions all together, the next day got a call to appear for interview either zoom or in person, i went for zoom, appeared for the interview, after the interview, got email in next 2 hours to provide 2 references, asked to fill online application form along with certified copies of identity documents and other mandatory document and to mail them to their address and also got a booking for medical and fitness test. What would probably be the next step. Is it a positive indicator if i clear the medical and fitness test?
Thanks
This certainly sounds positive! Please do let me know how you get on! 😄
I got the offer, Richard
I've applied for a Youth Justice Worker role. Would the interview questions be similar to these? Would there be additional questions? If you know it would be of great help.

@@ajmainbhuiyan3412 and yes I did my interview and assessment day. Not sure how they are carrying out interviews during this time though. I know some people are doing video interviews
So on my Portal it has said foe a few weeks now that my Pre- Employment checks are ongoing.... then a few days ago it changed to "Your checks are complete etc and it has been referred for a decision".
Today it has changed again to "Due to social distancing rules we cannot invite you to an assessment center but we will invite you to a video interview.. I have no idea what is going on now.. does anyone know what this means or what part of the application process I am in 🤣🤣🙈🙈🙈🙈

Does anyone know all the questions they ask?
The ones in this video :)
@@CareerVidz For OSG sorry.
I did my medical now they are saying I have under go debt check not sure how long it will take to get appointment letter
Good luck! I hope you are successful!
what kind of questions did they ask you in the interview?
debt check? I have couple of debts?would I still get accepted?
Is it possible that I could join with metal plates in my arm I'm still fit age 30 and I can do everything with arm
I passed the ARC with plates in my hand. The medical is just an eyesight test, BMI and blood pressure

Hi me again ha!
I'm on a merit campaign so I know it's 12 months you wait for a provisional offer but does anyone know if its any earlier. I scored a 68.75% on my PO AC exercises and a 10 on maths. Just wondered if it usually is quite quick! Just so keen to get started ha!
Congrats on passing! Sure someone here who has recently got the job will provide some insight 😊
I got an offer within 3 months but ive heard some people get offers in as little as 3 weeks.
@@ANDREWatYT ahh thank you for your response. I'm so impatient 😂. Good luck on your journey 😁 x
Hi there, have you heard anything back? Im curious of roughly how long people wait on the merit list. Many thanks.
@@wnxiiw4x31 hiya , I've got my provisional offer , got that a few weeks ago now. Waited I'd say about 2 and a half months. Hope this helps :)
Sorry can i ask if you need to do a medica check for this job and if so what kind of medicals?
Hi, yes they will do a medical check. Here is the page to check what they carry out: prisonandprobationjobs.gov.uk/prison-officer/

Awesome! Well done :)
CareerVidz thank you, was a very hard but rewarding day! Just waiting for the call back as I’m on a Merit List..
Hey reece. I have my ARC in Saturday. Since you have just passed it do you have any further tips that would help. I am mostly nervous about the role play and therefore would appreciate as much help as I can get. Thank you
Hey, Can I MSG you?
Mahira Peach sorry for the long reply to get to this but I can help or tell me how you done!(:
I passed my online assessment, had it Friday, found out Monday. I applied originally for a specific prison, do you get told if there's any other potions in prisons near your location, if that makes sense ha! If anyone knows that would be great! Mines on a merit campaign mind
TIA 😁😁 xx
Great to hear you passed your online assessment! I am not sure that you do, so it is worth keeping an eye out!
@@CareerVidz thank you 😊😊 xx
Hi Tia, if you don't mind could you please share some details about the interview, like how long did it last, what did you get asked and about the role plays? I've got mine next week and I'm trying to get as much info as possible. Thanks 😊

Hello, me again ha!
I've had my provisional offer and got a date for my fitness and medical woop!
Can anyone tell me exactly what the fitness is. I know there's a bleep test but with regards to the grip test, what is it, what's the weight etc?
Amazing!!! I'm sure someone in the comments will be able to provide the latest details on this 😊
oh yes oh yes yes,
by the way do you have any anti-tank Javelin busters as in misfirez, duds, or plop drops for resale, willing to pay 30 u.s. dollars a pop converted to rupees.
Sorry, I don't I'm afraid :(
Hi, what does the fitness test entail?
THIS: www.how2become.com/blog/prison-officer-fitness-test/
How old do you have to be? I’m 17. Does size matter? I’m 6ft, weigh 130 (not obese) and play a lot of sports, mainly rugby.
I believe you have to be 18 years and older to apply. And I dont think size matter as that would be discriminatory, however you would be required to be in good health and so a fitness test is carried out if you pass the first 2 stages. Hope that answers your question.

@@kindigo8712 bro well done congratulations, I'm going to apply too just wondering what questions was asked and what was it like .
@@happisingh5611 the position I applied for was actually a correctional officer position. I don't know if that's the same as a prison officer where he lives but it was super easy they really only asked me 3 or 4 questions one was talking about my strengths, talking about a time that I had to manage a group of people, and like one or two others I don't remember. I was literally in and out of the room in less than 5 minutes. The wait time was longer than the interview. The questions may not be exactly like the ones he have listed in the video but those are extremely helpful because they let you know how you should structure your answers and things like that
@@kindigo8712 thank you bro
Just a quick comment.. these answers are good.. this will help you pass the tests...... then you will go away to train...... then you will enter the establishment......... and THEN you will start learning the job! ''jail craft'' and ''life experience'' is the be all and end all!.......... they are not ''residents'', they are not ''the men''...... they are CONVICTED CRIMINALS! I.E Prisoners, cons, inmates... They lie and intimidate and manipulate.... STAY SAFE!........... The answer about inappropriate comments....... you have obviously never been in a wing office LOL!! XD
Thanks for your wise words, Brian :)
Hi Richard. You are a gun. Lol
A gun? Is that good? 😂
@@CareerVidz for sure it’s Aussie means very good
Can't spell potential....
I hope the content is helpful! :)
Don’t bother hmp highdown is under staffed most of the inmates are useing spice and out of there heads all day your be doing paperwork all day while most of the inmates are banged up all day trust me the job is shit most of the new guys will jack it in after two months it’s a nasty job and you don’t get to help anyone unless you get them a pack of vapes
Thanks for your insight.
Don’t recommend watching this, making a story in your interview might get you through but it won’t help you in the long run. Just go there a do it, it’s an interview if you fail it’s because you are not right for the Job.
Sure.
CareerVidz As an officer, I can say just be yourself by people copying this video they are just setting them self up for something that they shouldn’t be.
what a joke
What makes you say that?
