Thanks for the update Sirgerbil. Hope all is going for you and the rest of the group. The wait for any kind of update or commmunication from them is excruciating. I guess good things come to those who wait.....
Spoke to Becky directly and she has asked those who haven't had start dates to be patient as they will get round to sorting it for everyone. I don't have a start date yet and could be put on a course in October/November but she couldn't confirm. Offers will go out to everyone once they have a...
A very informative event and was great to meet those who we will be working with at KX. There was a lot of Q&A and think everyone got most of their questions answered. The main thing for me was that those based at KX depot will only go as far as Newcastle during their runs. Attending last night...
Thanks for that info and should have looked just below Sirgerbil message to see your one. At least that's cleared that part up. Hopefully they can give us more actual info on start dates after October than what's stated in the email. Here's to hoping I guess...
Very interesting that the amount you stated and the amount they stated are totally different. I wonder why it's changed that quickly in the space of a few weeks.
If you haven't received your train tickets for the Keep in touch event next week Tuesday, I would advise an email reminder to Erin especially as it's a shorter working week.
Not heard a single thing since last November when I passed my assessments. I have rang up a few times and just got told that they will contact me when positions become available. That was in January and still no phone call or email!
I agree it's very weird we haven't got our formal offer but those starting after 3rd May may receive our contracts at that event. Also weird how they emailed everyone whilst showing everyone's email address. It's not an issue for me but seems strange the lady done that!
Just got the same email aswell which must mean I've passed my medical even though the medical team stated I have done but just been waiting for confirmation from recruitment team. Look forward to meeting those who have passed at the event and hearing details and the contract/increments etc
Choochoodriver, How long after your medical did you get results/confirmation that you have passed them? They informed me it will be about 4-5 days before results comeback then they will let me know. Had my medical early last week and was wondering how long to leave it before contacting them.
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
