Interview but driving licence in maiden name!

Hello,

Can someone help me please? I've finally got an interview for postman/woman with driving. However, I recently got married and have not yet changed my name on my driving licence. I didn't want to send it to the DVLA during the application process because I'd need it. I have my marriage certificate to show it is actually me!

Will this be a problem for the interview? Should I call beforehand and explain?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

My license had the abbreviated form of my first name and RM needed me to get that changed. I'd suggest pointing it out at the interview and letting them know that you'll be sending the application to change it straight away after the interview. You should have your new licence within a couple of weeks. I found the HR team quite reasonable about it. Good luck.
