    I liked that line anyway...catchy... think maybe a few more lines to go with it, how about: 'The DWP stink of P, give us our jobs so we can have some Moneeey!!!!'

  • Is there anyone on this thread from Fife?? I applied for both AO and EO roles back in July and managed to successfully fly through both.

    I'm 21st on the EO list, but don't know where on the AO list as they didn't put a number on that letter and no one is answering their phones in Newcastle!!

    I've got my Criminal Checks through and I had a phonecall from a Job Centre office in Dunfermline asking on my preference of office (this was about a month ago). He said they'd be sending out letters the following week stating my start date. Needless to say, this never happened and when I phoned, a lady answered saying the gent I'd spoken to was 'on holiday'.

    I asked her when it would be likely that I would get communication from them again and was it wise to look for another role since this was taking so long? She said she didn't know and was completely unhelpful.

    Anyone else know what's going on in Fife? I wondered if I should pop in to my local branch and just ask if they already have new EO's working there - at least that way I'd get a straight answer, but they might think I'm a bit weird!!!!

  • Hi guys,

    just wondering...i recieved a call from manpower inviting me for the written test for the last EO london position.....but the funny thing about this call is that the guy said my passport photo must be signed and stamped by either an accountant,Gp or a solicitor......is this a new rule or what cos is a bit strange.....as for the irc...am just too lazy to check my inbox....but is the last EO posted in the london region....any feedback is well appreciated.the test is at Hilton Hotel croydon.

    I was told on the phone to bring my passport and a passport photo, and am going for the Lit/Num test on Thursday at the Thistle Hotel.

    But now your post is making me think about phoning them tomorrow and double-checking this whole passport + photo thing.
