Wanting to work for Royal Mail

Hello, I am currently in a job I HATE and can’t get out of. I work 6 days a week most weeks and have to stay most days to work for free if needed. I am interested and have a passion about joining a RM team. Recently a job came about and I applied for it on the 16th (postman/postwoman). The ad has now gone off indeed but it stated interviews were starting on the 28th. I have completed the online assessments and all it says is test submitted. Just wondering if anyone can help me out at all. Would I have heard something by now? Should my application of being updated if I’d failed or passed. And do you get an email to let you know? I’ve been checking twice a day and I’m just dreading not hearing anything. Thanks in advance.

It is a really slow process, don't give up if it seems like it is taking forever.

Everything is done online , there won't be anyone to talk to during the application. It is just a waiting game. I know this might not be much help but try not to think the worst the longer you go without an update.

They will let you know either way. Don't give up if this one fails. Took me about 9 attempts

Thank you for your help, just getting a big anxious as the interviews are stated to start on the 28th and it’s days away from that and I’ve heard nothing. I’m definitely not giving up though :)

I thought you were being sarcastic.
