Hi mrdai84 no he hasn't had a phone call yet, have you? Did they give any indication on how long it might be before you get a start? Sorry for all the questions but I just keep thinking its taking a very long time and he really needs the job now!

Thanks

Hi mrdai84 He applied early October and attended his registration event 3 weeks ago on Wednesday and was told then that the security checks would take 2 weeks.

His name is Derek he comes from Holytown and yes he has applied for night shift.

Fingers crossed for both of you that it takes less than 2/3 weeks.

Thanks for your help I appreciate it.
