I have been following posts for the past few weeks.

I received my letter today from dwp. IRC62979 and I was successful!

It says they are now conducting pre-employment checks and that if they are approved, I will be contacted shortly with a start date!

I think I might need to give them a call however, from the looks of many posts on here there is a waiting list that could last 12 months!

Hi Leon - did your letter arrive by post this morning? Just asking because the Resourcing Centre swear no letters have actually been posted yet, and that they will all go out tomorrow. I'm wondering if they are lying and that in fact all the 'successful' letters were sent out earlier... I hope not because that means I probably didn't get it

When did u call them?

I received mine this morning. I also received my test results in another letter which I thought was strange as I had already received this straight away after doing the tests.

I did my interview on the 20th Oct.

Good Luck!

I called them about an hour ago. It's really weird because the woman was very convincing! She even went off and double checked that no letters had been sent yet. Weird eh? She said I should know by Saturday though so just have to be patient for a couple more days...

Congratulations by the way! You must be over the moon

Hello! Mine was on the 23rd too. Were you in the 10:00 group? I hope they are being sent in order. I've managed to convince myself they've only sent out the 'Success' letters, and I am in the 'failed' pile.

Strange....

I called again today to chase letter, and was also told they being sent this week, could not give me details until all sent.

Was not the guy i have spoken to previously.....just going on the basis CRB have replied confirming my details being checked since 5th November.

My interview was the 23rd October.

Still confident though.

Yes it's all very strange. I was also told they would receive no information from Manpower about any candidates for IRC62979 until the interviews ended on Friday 13th, and yet you were told by the resource centre that you had passed before then weren't you? I get the feeling they've been telling me fibs to get me off the phone. :mad:

Thank you for the CRB address.

To be fair, the guy who gave me all the info was unaware of the additional tests taking place, hence why he told me, as he assumed they was all complete and no more details to come in?

But yes, you are right...i was told my rank on the list and my CRB had gone away. Would love to give you the guys name but actually asked me not to....

Still, hopefully will get a letter by end of week, will definitley call Friday either way to confirm exact details.

Am waiting to hear on other roles soon as they closing dates have been and gone.

Maybe we should have a seperate thread for each IRC???

What do people think?

Thanks - I am going to stop obsessing about it now and just wait for the letter... well I'm going to try anyway!

I think the separate thread is a great idea as it would be much easier to find out what's happening. I'm new though...
