Attended a registration event and they offered me work from 2nd December for night shifts (Monday to Friday) at Medway Mail Center that day and my end date would be the 28th January 2013 (at least that's what it says on the letter). :dance

I've phoned them and the gentleman i spoke to says i need to call back in a week's time. I was supposed to start November 25th, has anyone had this status and still been called for work? Many thanks.

How long was it roughly before it changed to processing security checks after you had your interview?

Last year mine was stuck on awaiting further info for around three weeks before getting a call with the job offer, they just take a while! Haha
Its now changed to security checks passed, now waiting for the call to confirm start date, Thanks

Same, But at the registration event i was given a letter with my start date (25th Nov) & told as long as my security checks pass to come in then, doubt i'll get the call to start earlier though.

Update :

Just changed to security checks passed.
