That's great to hear! I hope you enjoy the job :), my checks too so long to start as one of documents didn't have my middle name on but the other did, would be great to hear back within a week! That makes it this Wednesday, did you keep checking your profile or just wait for an email?

My profile changed to ' offer ' about an hour before I received email.
You have to reply to email confirming you will be attending the induction
And also letting them know if you have any holiday booked( I hadn't at interview but booked since)
Good luck.

Thankyou, I normally check it when I start work at 9 and then again at lunch and so on, I will let you know if I do hear back. Everyone on here all have said it's took exactlly 2 weeks but hopefully mine is quick like yours. What is said in the email that confirms your start date?
