Second job seekers allowance interview?

Hey there,

I had my first job seekers allowance interview a few weeks back and at the interview they gave me a small booklet stating 2 more times I have to come back in. I was just wondering what the second interview will be about? If anybody can tell me that would be great :)

  • You need to go in every 2 weeks to sign a document and update the JC on what you have been doing to find work. You would have been given another booklet to list everything you have done to find work - they will check this and possibly take notes to check with the companies involved.

    Its not going to thumb screws or anything like that, were you not told what to do for your next appointment ? I believe its as stephent82, you should have another booklet(grey/black in colour) for you to fill in for your job searches
  • The other two appointments on the front of your card are your normal signing on times, they just write them down so you know its every two weeks and you can work it out after that. Next time you go in, just hand your booklet over and say I'm here to sign on. Hope this helps.
  • Thank you guys for your help, I feel much better now as I didn't know what to expect.
