I can't believe it, I have been offered another position!!! :):)
my wildcard pulled of, don't know how I done it I passed the entrance test and have been successful! big big big insurance company with a 6 month min contract

I am waiting to be called into the company's recruitment agency office to sort paperwork it's all official like one extreme to the other lol!, just noticed and here is where my heart is now kind of sinking, the line of subject to clearance of compliance has cropped up in the job spec/where start date is, anyone know what this means? I realise I may be overthinking this

Do I continue on given my history, as the Insurance co just said about reference checking at interview

The salary means option/possibility of having my DRO revoked anyway - could this count for anything

  • An insurance company is likely to require a credit check. You'll need to ask how clean/ good this needs to be in order for you to pass.
  • Just heard from agent, who only in this latest conversation it has come about yes this does involve a credit check which I know I stand no chance of passing, I froze couldn't speak stuggling with my 'term' at the mo just wanted to get the agent of the phone and waste no more time

    I need to do letter to turn down - suppose I'll have to elobrate given that I'm turning down job whilst on JSA, that should shut up the jobcentre advisor who said no don't believe you any companies other then finance obviously just don't do these checks !!!!! when I'd put down my DRO as a factor in why I'd may have trouble gaining employment

    Least I also now know why my last job didn't last ! :p finally
