| Quarter | Cases handled | On time | Total cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Q1 | 2,400 | 75% | £108,000 |
| Q2 | 2,700 | 80% | £112,320 |
Compared with Q1, how much lower was the cost per case completed on time in Q2? Round to one decimal place.
Q1: 2,400 × 75% = 1,800 on-time cases. £108,000 ÷ 1,800 = £60 per case.
Q2: 2,700 × 80% = 2,160 on-time cases. £112,320 ÷ 2,160 = £52 per case.
Reduction: (£60 − £52) ÷ £60 × 100 = 13.3%. Compare the cost per on-time case, not the total cost or the change in case volume.

One competition, one payment
Start with one complete free decode, not a teaser. If it helps, the £39 Competition Pass unlocks 60 days of every live tool. One payment that ends by itself, with nothing to cancel.

Try it freeUnlimited decoding, the full practice banks, three role-specific mock interviews a month and your private evidence workspace.
Choose passJump in at any point. We will meet you where you are.
That pattern usually means the format is the problem, not your ability. The decoder shows what each part of your application is assessed against, and the Evidence Bank helps you restructure your real examples to match. Nothing here writes your application for you, and no service can guarantee a result.
Free guidance explains the system in general. The workspace starts from your specific advert: it decodes what that vacancy assesses, banks your own examples in the scoring format and drills the named tests. The difference is focus, not secrets.
Follow the rules stated in the vacancy. The platform is designed to help organise and improve your own genuine evidence, not invent experience.
UK accounts use a separate EU-region database with row-level controls. Vacancy text is processed only to return your analysis and is saved to your workspace only when you choose to save it.
The pathway spans AA and AO through EO, HEO, SEO, Grade 7, Grade 6 and the Senior Civil Service.
No. Preparation can improve clarity and familiarity, but recruitment outcomes depend on the evidence and assessment process.
