AO Interview

Hi everyone,

I'm a bit confused, I’ve had a few AO interviews and have received letters stating I am successful and they are doing pre-recruitment checks. This was 3 weeks ago now.
When I’ve spoke to people at the jobcentre, they have said everything should be okay but just incase we will carry on sending you other job details.

I thought by dwp saying I am successful, I will have the job. I have got a clean record so I know that will not be a problem.

What happened with everyone else's applications?

I'm in the same situation and it's quite distressing, but I did phone Disclosure Scotland yesterday and they have confiirmed my CRB's been completed. Next up are the HMRC checks, and then reference checks.

The whole process is a little slow, but then they are doing a massive national recruitment drive, so don't panic.

How long have you been waiting since your successful letter?

I haven't heard anything from my CRB's, spoke to someone from dwp and they confirmed they will send my crb soon as they send them in bulk.

When i speak to people from dwp they all tell me different things.

I'm concerned though as i have finished university over a year now. I have been working part time and i do sometimes phone in sick and I’m worried i will get caught out now. I know this is not right and i am stressing about it now.

I have been told they only contact HMRC for your employment details and not your recent employer..
