  • Hi everyone! I applied for the AO position and had my interview etc in May. I recieved a success letter in June and was placed on a waiting list. I have yet to hear about a start date. Is there anyone else waiting? How long have most of you had to wait etc? I am very excited about getting back to work, but have a feeling that this wait cant be good lol!

    Congrats to everyone who have also had a success, and good luck to you guys who have interviews! xx

    Which IRC No. did you apply for and which district?

    If you ring the tel no. on your success letter, they should let you know whereabouts you are on the list (hopefully !)

    Have you had your Disclosure Certificate yet, and do you know whether your referees have been contacted?

    If not, you can also ask them when you ring what the present position is regarding these pre-recruitment checks.
