DWP employment waiting list

Stouffer

Sorry to ask again, but depseration is truly setting in here.

Went for a pensions administration job in Leicester (IRC60395) and am on the waiting list. Had an urgent Email requesting my Disclosure Scotland form. Is that standard even though I'm on the waiting list, or does it mean my application is being processed?

Sorry to ask again, but I just need something to do, lol. Well, a job would be better obviously.

To be honest , its unlikely you're going to get any meaningful response from them within a month , it takes on average 4-6 months to start and clarity from the DWP is simply non-existent.

Keep your job for now and tell your manager you're unable to give a firm finish date however, you suspect its going to be around November.

Ps : By all means keep trying to ring Dwp for timescale.

Call the number that is on the successful letter? or you may have been given a number after you had your interview?

Any of the two other people on here have any fresh info regarding irc60076? you guys got your disclosures yet or anything?

The only number on my successful letter was 0191216, its like they missed the last 3 digits off!! Any ideas on what they are?

Oh bloody hell, I was hoping to leave next month! The man in the interview said it would be the 1st September! Oh well at least I have a job, not like some of the people on here who have been waiting for so long, I think I would have lost the will to live!

Yipppppeeeeee. at last, was actually quite quick compared to some. i was thinking that now they have done all the checks i am going to have to wait ages until they call me to start. i would say on the whole my experience has actually been ok. i never called them, but i did e-mail them a few times. but you do need to be on top of things.

good luck to those who are still waiting, you will get there eventually and i hope all those that have started are enjoying it.
