Re: Hi all....
Welcome to the forum.
As long as your not hiding a criminal record or currently due to appear in court etc you will be fine. They really need new staff at this time of year, getting close to xmas.
Back when I started they had you on a full years probation whilst they continued to perform security checks upon you and your parents.
It was only after the 12 months that you officially were given the job.

Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Re: Hi all....
I started a couple of months ago and all the communication I had was by email, no phone calls at all. I was offered a choice of two dates for the induction (at 6 and 12 days notice) and started at the delivery office the next day. I finally got my uniform after 7 weeks and am still waiting for the shoes/trainers!! It was down to forever reminding the managers that I was still waiting. I have worn through two cheapie pairs of trainers in the meantime. My induction day was a Tuesday and I was paid on the Friday of that week, but had to wait a further two weeks to get the pay for the induction day.
