Has anyone started for 60811 yet? x0
-
Right then, just rang Newcastle today ref IRC 62504 and spoke to George. He confirmed my position as 89/128.
I told George I was told originally I was 67th when I got my successful letter in Oct and then 96th about three weeks ago and I was confused as Derek told me that 28 people had been requested from the Business Centre so therefore I would be 68th.
George couldn't deny or confirm this information. He did say that no-one had been employed from this list as yet and that they had done CRB checks for the first 73 on the list, so no CRB check for me as yet boo hoo
I hope the above is of some help to others on the forum.
As for me, I'm just gonna sit on the bench and wait lol

Sorry I never got back sooner about the phone number but gather from this post that you have called them now. At least you have some more information but a bit of a pain how it keeps changing!
Will look through the other posts later referring to 62504...0 -
HI matey,
RE: IRC 60811
They haven't recruited anyone for this IRC just yet. I'm waiting the call, too. Apparently all the successful applicants are with Jobcentre Plus. All of my checks have been done, CRB back and cleared and I'm waiting just like you, my friend.
I take it you're Worcestershire based then? :rotfl:0 -

So nice to see a little flurry of 60811's on here today - we all are in the same position - and I think the concensus is that we should hear something on or after end of this month? I'm Shropshire and on the JC Merit list - forty something - hope we can all celebrate properly soon ...I even told my current employer and the atmosphere has been a little frosty lately!!! certainly would not have done so if I had known what a long wait we were in for...................:o0 -
Sent an email today, got a quick response but nothing new I'm afraid;
RE: IRC60811
Thank you for your email
Jobcentre Plus are still reviewing their staffing situation and future requirements. Hopefully Resourcing will soon be in a position to provide all successful candidates with more information.
I have however checked the merit list for this selection exercise and I can confirm that you are now placed joint 35th and your pre recruitment checks are complete. The vacancy holder has been made aware of all successful candidates that have passed their pre recruitment checks.
Whilst Resourcing administer selection activity on behalf of Jobcentre Plus I should advise that any decisions regarding offers of employment are made by the local business area. I appreciate that you will be disappointed with my response, I do genuinely understand your frustration but regrettably until we receive further information from Jobcentre Plus I am unable to advise as to when postings will be made from the recruitment exercise.
Should you have any additional enquiries please do not hesitate to contact me again.

I sent an e-mail requesting info and received the standard reply as above.
61880 is Warwickshire, I presume 60811 is Worcestershire.
Following this thread and hearing everyone elses stories has kept me sane. Thanks xx:A0 -
Had a phone call this morning and it looks like Manpower in Newcastle are contacting about another EO position, IRC 63745 (Thames Valley). Good luck to anyone who applied.

Hi All
I sat for an assessment test on 13/10 and a week later got an email advising I have passed the minimum standards and that I am on a waiting list for six months.
Has anyone been called for an interview? Or even received a posting in City and East or North/North East London?
Any information on how this process works will be appreciated.
Hi there
Which IRC in London was this??0 -

Hey Topaz -
I agree - end of this month (hopefully - I'm dying to start!)
I'm on the Merit List myself for Shropshire and have just asked where I am on it. Where were your choices in Shropshire? If there's a God we'll be starting together soon!
