The amazing thing is I have been for 4 interviews and got 4 disclosures, my wife has been for 3 interviews and got 3 disclosures. We both got successful letters for posts so didn't bother going to any more interviews that we were asked to attend.
I suppose we have a slight advantage over a lot of people in that we both worked in "customer facing" EO roles previously for the Civil Service (for 17 years between us) so our interview competencies were all related to the Civil Service.
These were my first interviews for 9 years so I was very nervous and thought I hadn't done that well. But I had which doesn't half give your self esteem a boost (I've not worked for over 5 years).0 -

Arghhh - 2 more Disclosure Scotland certificates. That's my fourth and my wife's third. I might start selling these.
I'm sure you must have mine! :mad:"You dont need a weather man to know which way the wind blows"0 -

To recap - that's 7 interviews, 7 disclosure scotland's and only 4 success letters. Something doesn't add up.0

Mwahaha...I'm always lurking about...well, most of the time anyway, unless i'm stalking the postman on his daily rounds for my disclosure form. Gotta keep an eye on things after all!!
Anyway....Maisette and i want our disclosures back! Stop hogging them all!!! You're going to have a disclosure for everyone on every waiting list in England soon!!! Not fair!"You dont need a weather man to know which way the wind blows"0 -
things have really changed on the job front. i remember when you had your interview and started work a week later. too much red tape these days.0
