Real Reviews By Real People

Liam Antrobus - Gwent Police Officer

After failing his first attempt alone, Liam invested in Bluelight Academy for his second recruitment process with Gwent Police.

"If this is the career path you want, I would 100% recommend it. It's an investment into your future. I didn't realize until I sat in the interview how much the preparation helps - I was so nervous beforehand, but once they asked a question, I thought 'I've done this 3-4 times before.' My confidence just grew from there."

David Loftus - Sussex Police Officer

95% Written Score, David successfully passed both his Online Assessment Centre and Final Interview for Sussex Police's Degree Holder Entry Programme.

"I wasn't sure if it was as good as they say it's gonna be. I took a chance because you had great reviews, and it was worth it 100%. You don't just get the background on what you need to go through...you also get taught the values and expectations of what it is to be a police officer. "

Chloe Purdy - Gloucestershire Constabulary

85% Score With Just One Week's Notice - While Working Full-Time

"I wasn't sure if it was as good as they say it's gonna be. I took a chance because you had great reviews, and it was worth it 100%. You don't just get the background on what you need to go through...you also get taught the values and expectations of what it is to be a police officer. "

Vasilena Pehlivanova - Metropolitan Police Officer

Vasilena discovered Bluelight through Brendan's book and successfully passed both her Online Assessment Centre and Day One assessments for the Met.

"I was nervous, I didn't know what to expect, but once I discovered you guys, I got so much confidence. It's not too good to be true - it's actually so, so good, and it's definitely worth it. Worth investing my time, my finances, everything. Both coaches were flexible with my schedule, always there to guide me. All of the positive reviews are fair, definitely."

Chris Williams - Greater Manchester Police

From "Scraping By" to Confident Success in Just 10 Days - his first interview in over a decade.

"I just scraped by on the OAC by myself and needed help. Getting in touch with Catherine gave me the confidence to actually go into that final interview. She was very helpful and to the point. If you want that extra confidence and knowledge, it's the ideal course - it just sets you up for success. The interview felt natural, like I was with my peers rather than doing an interview."

Alexander Worley - Surrey Police

From Two Failed Attempts to Success - "I Needed a Reality Check"

"I felt like I needed a really big reality check when I first tried to do it. I failed the Met's behaviour test twice and was really stuck. That's where I found Blue Light and found a really good opportunity to nail down how to decipher all of this. You've got nothing to lose by making that first step in reaching out. Whatever information you can get from them, it's great. Raj is very good at what he does - really easy to discover what areas you need to work on, and the feedback is just top-notch."

Jessica Maruniak - West Yorkshire Police

Failed first attempt. Waited 6-7 months to reapply. Scored so high they told her immediately she passed and moved her start date forward 3 months.

"I genuinely don't know how people do it without this help. It blows my mind thinking people can get through without the coaches. The first time I failed, but the second time, I felt so much more confident. I realized I was the only person in West Yorkshire for this route going in with guidance - that made me feel I had a real advantage. If you're serious about joining the police, don't hesitate. It's an investment into your future career. You don't see the real benefit until you've gone through it - it's absolutely increased my confidence massively."

Satnam Juss - West Midlands Police

Despite both parents serving 20+ years as police officers, Satnam knew he needed expert guidance to succeed. Now awaiting vetting for West Midlands Police.

"I was really nervous and stressed out. I grew up in a policing household - both my parents were in the police for over 20 plus years - but even their knowledge didn't provide me the confidence to get through those stages. I came across Brendan's videos on YouTube and thought, 'I need to get on that course straight away.' Without your guys' help and expertise, I wouldn't have been successful, even having that knowledge at home. Jane was lovely - she reassured me that it's not about your experiences, it's about catering to the CVF and competencies. If you want to invest in your future, go for it. It's not a waste of money. You'll come out a better person with more knowledge and experience."

George Morgan - Greater Manchester Police

Final year university student with no interview experience. Now starting with GMP in December.

"I'd never actually had an in-person interview before, so I was really daunted and intimidated. I was at a complete loss about where to actually start. The consultancy program was just really helpful. Obviously you still have to do the hard work, but they were able to give that guidance and point me in the right direction. The webinars were really helpful - seeing people in similar positions, their answers, how they compare to your own. It's that reassurance of seeing you're not by yourself. Looking at it, I just don't see why you wouldn't join. It is a sum of money, but if you pass, you're in line for a career, and if you fail, it's money back - so it's just a win-win scenario, really.."
