You can read a bit more about the main areas of advice by selecting from the list below. This will also detail any specialist help we can offer.
We operate a gateway assessment service and your first interview
will last no more than ten minutes. A follow-up interview may
be required at a later date, for more complex issues.
Please note that there can be delays at busy times and, due to
demand, we cannot guarantee same day assessments or interview.
