The wait is over!

I received calls today from a couple of London Districts with formal offers.
Fallowing the phone calls I was sent an email with locations for each district I applied for that I have to respond to in 5 working days.
The start dates are all (relatively) in the beginning of June.

Good luck to all of you still waiting!

Hi quo, great news. Can I presume the individual regions contacted you with the offer, the details of the position, start dates and location, and then you was issued an email. Was it one email for all areas or a number covering the individual areas.

Anyway, I had a telemedical today and my 20 days expires on Wednesday, so here's hoping.

Congratulations to everyone who is getting their offers, and to those who will not, do not despair, I am certain you will achieve something soon.

Hi everyone just wondering what exactly the 20 days that everyone mentions means? My 20 working days from provisional offer was up on Friday and just wondered how set in stone it is, as haven't heard anything as such but did have a copy of my CRB sent to me last week and no my ref were returned last week x

Congrats, that's great news! Does Bexleyheath fall under one of the London districts or Kent?

Hi,

Any news for recruitment in South Yorkshire.
