Well I've just had an email inviting me to sit literacy testing TOMORROW, having passed an AO sift. Just as well I check emails regularly/have already passed literacy and numeracy. Anyone waiting on AO competence sift results and yet to sit the literacy test check your emails NOW!!

You know. The sift test. Didn't you do one oneline as the very first stage in the application? The one that has you rank certain reactions 1-4.

I know, the email thing is a new one on me too. So that's the post, the phone AND email I now have to monitor anxiously.

What I had to do was ring up Newcastle (yes, another half hour pressing redial every 2 seconds), cite the IRC number, give them my test scores and say what IRC I passed them under. They then put you right through to interview stage which 'might be anytime, depending on the volume of test passers'.

Oh the sloth...

London. The same email address as you send it to. It's just a post-box.

Yes DWP do it online for all vacancies as far as I know. They certainly do for AO positions because I applied for one.

I also recieved DWP communications by e.mail. Quite common.

I only have 2 applications to base evidence on but the first time was by post. I thought it was a bit antwacky tbh. Much better by email.

Congrats pebbles!!! What position and location you applied?

How long your CRB take? Was you on waiting list or not?

5th May - is that your 1st day? or do you have any training for your position?
