The practice of the Civil Service Commissioners is not to indicate how many candidates have entered for a competition until the result is available. The written part of the current trainee technician competition was held on 4th and 5th February, 1976, and the papers are still being corrected. The most highly placed of the candidates will be called for interview. At least 260 appointments will be made from those who qualify at the interview.
