DWP Recruiting Again - 2012

Comments
-
I’m on the reserve list for East London but got offers for West L and South L on the 23rd of April. I accepted the offer on the 24th and yesterday I called Disclosure Scotland for an update and I was told that they received my CRB application on the 1st of May and that it would take 10 working days at the most for a return but realistically, the operator informed me that it would take 8 working days. I assume that next week I will get a call about the location. That may be your case as well depending on when the DWP sent out your CRB application.
Are you aware of whether your referees have been contacted? As mine have not. I guess I'll call Scotland Disclosure tomorrow to check the progress of my application.0 -
Hi to all you reservists out there (if you're still here!), anybody had any good news yet re a provisional offer anywhere.......?
All the best, Tabs0 -
Was made provisional offer in east Scotland and put on reserve list for Leicestershire . Got a provisional offer from Leicestershire as well with 28 marks. I will not accept it. So there are chances anyone securing similar scores on reserve list in this district will hear a good news soon.Hth0

No contact there but in most cases the references will be checked with HMRC.
It's worth calling Scotland as that will give you an idea of where you stand.
Or not- I called DS the other day after getting prov. offer for E/SE Scotland on 19 April. There's no disclosure application in for me at all. DWP Recruitment line could not help except to advise me to email "the team that have sent your correspondence". I have done this, but am now really concerned I've somehow disappeared off the radar!:eek:

Hi Tabs, I'm on 3 reserve lists but haven't had any news yet. I don't hold out much hope for BC or SS but have my fingers crossed for B&S. Many people who accepted multiple offers will have to choose only one position soon so I'm still hoping I'm in with a chance.0 -
Hey,
Does anyone know if they leave a message when they call with the job offer? I've had a few 'unknown number' calls over the last few days but no voicemail. Hoping it's not them and I'm ruling myself out by being busy when they call.
Also no word from 2nd on reserve list from Coventry and Worcestershire. (The other one is my BC provisional)0
