What if my divert application end in failure could I ask to start at the later date

Hello, thank you for reaching out - if you have had your application diverted, we will look to consider your application wherever you have requested if we have vacancies remaining or lower applications. This could happen at any point throughout the process, however it cannot be guaranteed if roles you have selected in the divert process are popular. If your divert application is not used this recruitment cycle, you would likely need to start your application again at a later point for the following year, if that is what you mean by a later date. I hope that provides some clarity!
