5 Year Work History Check

Post by MarkPW87 »

Hi, folks. I recently passed my interview with Royal Mail for a postman job and was sent an email to complete my 5 year work history. I'm not entirely sure that my dates claiming Jobseeker's Allowance between jobs are accurate. I put that I claimed JA the day after finishing a job until the day before I started a new job because I wasn't sure of the exact dates, I just wanted to fill the gaps in between. Will RM contact the jobcentre to find out if the dates are accurate or will they just concentrate on my work history? Thanks

Put what you can remember as best as you can.
Not sure if they contact anybody but do your best just in case.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.
