applied for the Christmas casual job two months ago

[sagrthapa]

I applied for the Christmas casual job two months ago. And been called twice for document assessment. I have submitted my all documents and it been fine. And in my last interview, they told me that i will be called before December and giver information about the work. But i have not heard from any of the angard staffs and even not sure whether i got the job or not? some one please help

Is it Angard staff you have previously been in contact with. Christmas casuals are supposed to be getting hired direct by Royal Mail and not Angard but it does appear Angard are hiring some - possibly only at MDECs.

Sometime in September 2012, Angard casuals received a letter from Sam Slater so called "account manager" for Angard Staffing solutions persuading us to "refrain from applying to Royal Mail for Christmas Casual jobs" because Angard would be giving us more work!?

I for one heeded the advice like many others!

WE WHO are EMPLOYED BY ANGARD HAVE BEEN LIED TO and utterly deceived!

In actuality one could not apply because if you were an existing employee of Angard you were barred from applying by the website!!!!!

Not only have we received a drop in shifts offered but most have only been offered 4 hour shifts. What an utter con and deception by this dreadful company!

Unless we receive more shifts at this supposed "busy time", I shall be writing a letter of complaint and copying it to Moya Greene, CEO of Royal Mail Group.
This is totally unfair and unacceptable practice at the Exeter Mail Centre and seems to be happening all over.

This discriminatory employment practice must stop or Angard casuals will have no option but to take out tribunal procedures against angard.
Last year 2011 we all suffered the Angard payroll complete FIASCO now Xmas 2012 is giving us the "Shift" angst!!

Why do I have a spam feeling today,

Sorry intelligentsia but if I may say so your posting the same message in every thread has kind of spoiled the point your trying to get across. I think it would have been better to start a single thread and let people comment. The reason I am saying this is that after the 4th or 5th time I was catching myself thinking - Oh No not again especially when you posted the same message 3 times in a single thread.

In fact could everyone try to avoid doing the same. You messages and discussions are important to a forum like RMC, so its kind of sad if the point your are trying to make is swamped because you post it so many times.

Just a thought.

I think an exception should be made in the case of posting duplicate messages on several threads.I believe it is more important that as many people read the post by intelligentsia in this instance as it highlights the disgraceful way workers are being used.

I agree this message is key to what is happening to many of us "Angardee's" the letter we were sent was the key to all this.

This will go further I'm (still) waiting for my own reply from "Just say it" and will give them until the middle of the week to give me some reason for no Christmas work and a reason for the need to be "re-vetted".

As for my emails to Angard.....well I give up. Someone knows something. I guess any journalists reading this site may well sniff out this years breaking story....GOOD!

I agree with intelligentsia, seems you have to repeat your self before anyone listens, I am also in the same boat and have not got work for 3 weeks.
I listened to Angard, and did not apply direct to RM
