Im really going to miss this thread, feel like I have become close to many posters on it. I refuse to say goodbye to it until I get my start date and location, would be good to know if I was actually working with any of the fellow posters on here too....

So does anyone know anymore information regarding the reserve lists?

Three provisional offers and one on waiting list. Just confused now as to where to move to. Any advice people.

Got offers from East Anglia, Leicestershire and North London. On reserve list for East London

Another addition here to the reserve list. Being as I scored 27 I don't know what this says about the Essex area markings. I personally thought I was under-marked as my examples were strong and put it down to being on the first day of interviews, but my nerves definitely let me down and this was reflected in feedback.

Oh well, I shall carry on stacking those shelves for now and keep on keeping on. Yes... shelf stacking on minimum wage and I hate it, but it's something of an income. Well done all who were successful, it's genuinly pleasing to see some of the competent posters getting what they deserve.

Just a note for those on reserve lists... some positions may not become available as quickly as expected as those that received multiple offers are able to accept all of these offers...

if you have been made and wish to accept more than one provisional offer, you are only required to complete the Health Declaration form once.

Not really sure how this works to be honest... Would you accept them all because you aren't sure what locations you will be offered, especially if you live on the border of 2 districts as I do...

If you do accept more than one, does that mean you will have a choice? I just don't know... Anybody else?

I'm in the same situation as you I live on the border of B&S and BC. I've accepted both offers..DWP will do their check and then you will recieve final offers from all district you applied to with the exact location of the jcp start date etc. You will then need to accept which one you want and decline the rest freeing up places for those on the reserve lists.

Hope this helps

While I love London, and North London in particular as its where I was born and bred, it is a ridiculously expensive place to live - the wage weighting accounts for some of the expense but probably not all of it.

Also some of North London is a a little...rough...so it does depend on which office you are offered and where you could afford to live.

Some parts are beautiful though, where I live now is gorgeous and it is vibrant - there's always lots going on! I think its a great place if you are single but maybe not as much if you have a family because of the expense.
