  5. Essential criteria • A Fibre Optic or Telecoms qualification is desirable, but not necessary as full training will be given by Openreach • Applicants must be able to clearly demonstrate on their CV, experience or an aptitude for telecoms, electrics, electronics or other relevant engineering disciplines • As these are mobile positions, applicants must have a full driving licence with no more than 6 points on it • Be able to work at height and in confined spaces • Applicants must not be colour blind • 5

  6. Application process • Applicants need only apply for 1 location; preferably the one they live nearest to/intend to live near. CTP will contact applicants to discuss their application and will find out at this stage ability to work in other locations • SLs can only apply by using the relevant reference number through RightJob and using a targeted CV, demonstrating ability to do the role • If a SL cannot get onto RJ, they should contact the CET for assistance with accessing RJ (0121 236 0058) • Please do not direct Service leavers to any of the project team to apply. • 6

  7. Interview process • Will last up to 1 hour • SLs are likely to be asked about their knowledge of cabling/fibre optics, routers/modems, circuits/diagnostics and navigating around a computer/laptop, • If SLs do not already have this knowledge, they will need to research thoroughly prior to interview • Interviews will be competency-based - SLs need to give real-life examples to demonstrate skills and experience • Interviews are scheduled to take place during August and mid September – subject to change • We will endeavour to get interview packs to SLs via e-mail ASAP. If SLs have not received interview packs 1 week prior to interview they can email openreach@ctp.org.uk with the subject heading INTERVIEW DETAILS • 7

  8. Start dates • Likely to take up to 4 weeks after interview before candidates hear from Openreach • If the SL has not heard anything after 4 weeks, they can e-mail openreach@ctp.org.uk and the CTP will follow up with Openreach • Start dates for the work attachment are as soon as possible and no later than the end of October 2012 • Applicants who are not available to take up employment before 31st December (including the 5 week work attachment and terminal leave) need not apply • In essence, SLs can have a discharge date up to the end of December 2012 however, they must have completed the work attachment and begin working for Openreach on Terminal Leave.
