Exactly, this why I am so gutted I'm so far down on the list

They have lumped in the summer intakes (that have not started yet) with the winter intakes....i think, sorry just guess!

This is my story:
04 Aug - N & L Test
05 Aug - Interview
30 Sept - CRB received from DWP
20 Oct - Contacted Newcastle only to be advised freeze was on and I must call again in November.
27 Oct - emailed DWP - response was quick stating "I have checked the merit list you are 18th on the list, the business have started posting so will be in contact once they have a start date to offer unfortunately I don't have timescale when this will be"
29 Oct - :jRECEIVED THE CALL :j with start date 9th Nov and choice of 2 locations - BRILLIANT :beer:
2 Nov - :jConfirmation letter received with details for Monday 9th Nov and some stuff about Civil Pensions

:DI am now excited and looking forward to working after 12 months of unemployment!!!!

Question : 1) Does anyone have info regarding Civil Service Pensions? Searched the thread but cannot find it.
2) How long is EO training?

TO ALL THOSE WAITING- I KNOW IT IS FRUSTRATING BUT HANG IN THERE!!

:jCongratulations Naz1001 :jGood luck for Monday, let us know how you get on will you? Always nice to get some feedback on what its like etc. Well done once again. :beer:

When your details have been passed to Business servises, does that mean they are ready to make the call or is it another looong wait?

What is the approximate waiting time from then?

Would they pass you to business if there are no vacancies yet?

Congrats! Another one to receive the call.. I have but given up hope for IRC 60370. If anyone apart from Slitty has got a start date please let me know.

Slitty was 60369.

I had a call today re: both 60369 and 60370 in response to my email complaint from the 22nd Oct. Apparently they're going to try to sort me out an interview for 60369 to make up for all the stuff ups.

With regards 60370, I was told they've only just started placing people. That ties in with Newcastle having sent one of my personal references a letter asking for a ref on me. I was apparently 58th on the list, but now 54th as the first couple have been placed.

Some further info I got is that apparently if you are in a joint position on the list, they place everyone with that score simultaneously. As such the list can be worked through a lot quicker than you'd think. Anyway, I was told it would likely be a couple more weeks before I'd hear anything on 60370.

In the meantime, I had my 6 month review today. I now qualify for the bribe to employers, which I've passed on to my agent, who has passed it on to the people I interviewed with yesterday. I'm expecting to know tomorrow whether or not I can give the DWP a virtual look at my middle finger and start a much better job next week. Got everything crossed!

I agree Heather, i'm 50 and Nick sounds so much more mature than myself lol , also nice to hear that another family will have a nice Christmas :j

Thankyou heather and Cap123, people often tell me that im more mature than most people my age, i think that is down to having a child to look after and being self reliant at a young age, as most people my age either still live with their parents or go to university, where at university most are still supported by the state. But anyways I also hope to make some friends and get some form of social life as i moved to area a live now (Gloucester) only 9 weeks ago and have 0 friends here, i wonder if there is anyone reading this that works or will soon be working at the Gloucester Jobcentre would be good to hear from you.
