Were you (or anyone else you know) given the option to choose working pattern/hours apart from the training period. many thanks

No - I started with two other women, who, although they dont have small childern, werent happy with the hours suggested. However, they only told me that afterwards and didnt bring it up to the line manager. Not sure how that would work with them! Im sure if it was brought up, they would be happy to accomodate, they seem very family friendly from what ive seen over the last month in the office so I think the outrage of the working hours (in most cases) is jumping the gun a bit. Most JCPS will help you out from what ive seen x

Congratulations Mixed Emotions, who did you get the call from? I am waiting for my CRb at the moment as i called them today. They have said my checks are all finished just waiting for thr DS Certificate to scan over to them.

Thanks! I was waiting to hear news from you. The call will come very soon if crb is all they are waiting on so don't fear. I was called by a woman called Lucy Jarvis.

After an interview on March 14 and a successful letter on March 23 I finally had the phone call today and start training for personal adviser in Exeter on 4 August! Hooray :beer:
Hope this gives hope to everyone who is waiting patiently

The local HR people seem lovely - much better than Newcastle where they must be totally overwhelmed

Well done downshifted :beer:.

You have waited a long time for THE CALL.

All the best for when you start your training.

I have been told today by Newcastle that all my checks are complete and my paperwork has been sent to the business. Does anyone have an idea of timescal now?

Cheers for any help

Mine personally was very quick- i got the call the day after my file was cleared. That is not average time though, but it shouldn't be too long now

Still waiting for the call like mommarat. Just found out they are recruiting for EO in Black Country again. So here's hoping.

Hello,

Possibility of them changing the hours 8-8pm but nothing confirmed. Asked on first day if this would be ok - said they would give notice and it would be shared evenly which is fair enough. For the moment my hours are 8.45 - 5 with obviously the use of flexi. More than happy with that arrangement but understand that it might be difficult for some.

hi, can you please elaborate on 'use of flexi, many thanks
