Six weekly Signing on?

What is the agenda for each week of the 6 weekly signing on after your 13th week interview? The first week is your CV but what comes after that as I have no idea?
Any help would be great!

    Here's the hoop - jump through it.
    Seriously, little more than an enhanced jobsearch - i.e. they will look at the database that you have been looking at yourself.
    It's just more pressure really (gives the staff a reason for their existence though).

    I understand what their doing but I can't remember what I have to do or bring with me for the second week. Do you know?

    As far as I know, just same as usual - your signing booklet and record of job-seeking efforts.

    Not forgetting that you can claim your travel expenses for the signings that are additional to the regular fortnightly ones (i.e. those in between).
  • It's just "intense job searching". I think the intention is to weasel out those that have no intention of finding a job because 6 weeks is really not enough time to have been accepted for a job considering some places don't interview and/or announce who got the job for a good few weeks.

    As long as you are looking for work, it's nothing different really to the fortnightly appointments. If I remember rightly though, you have got to go to them. Even if you are sick.
