My friend and I were discussing this subject earlier today as she sent off her application form for EO 27/7, closing date was 30/7

Is it normal that she hasn't heard anything at all since then?

She should receive an e-mail from DWP with the on-line test after submission of her application. I think mine took a couple of weeks from when I applied

Thanks Jessbob So I guess she has approx another week to wait before she finds out whether her application has been accepted.

Poor thing, she check the post and emails every day

I know. Its horrible all the waiting. Once she completes the on-line test though, and provided she is successful in that, they are pretty quick to ring to invite for interview

Its 4 weeks yesterday since my interview, they told me I would hear in 2 weeks. Emailed them last week now a 4-5 week wait.

Never mind, applied for another 1!

Just to update you all - I applied for the EO role in Liverpool with a closing date of 30th June.

I attended my assessment day on Friday 24th July. I passed the tests and had my interview - which I honestly think I was awful at - had a much better one for the AO role on the following monday.

Today I received an email from capita who are running the recruitment, that asked me to fill out a location preference form, even though I filled on out on the day!!!! They didn't say if I had been successful, just thanked me for attending and asked me to send the completed form back at my earliest convenience.

If I hear anything further I will let you all know. Has anyone else who attended the EO interview in Liverpool heard back yet???

Following my post yesterday about the email - today I received my CRB certificate back, a printed letter with my test results (I only had hand written results on the day) and a letter to say I had been successful and they are taking the pre-recruitment checks.

Will update you if/when I get a start date. So if anyone out there attended the EO assessments in Liverpool or Warrington around 3 weeks ago - keep an eye on your emails and the post and let me know how you get on.

Hi

I too had my interview on the 24th July and after 15 agonising days, have received three letters today. I received my CRB, test results and success letter. They are now doing pre-recruitment checks so it sounds promising. Can't wait until they actually offer me a role and then I will be confident I have the job!
Well done by the way.

I am just writing with a question to anyone, I have recently been accepted and given a start date for a band c executive officer role within the dwp. I am concerned with whether or not the employers will ask me to leave because I have a 4 mm hole in each ear lobe (sign of a mis spent youth). I would be grateful if you could get back to me asap with some idea as to acceptable appearance within the department.
