:confused It's often a long drawn out process but I would of expected some sort of application acknowledgement after a month. Maybe worth dropping an email to myapplication@royalmail.com

A decade ago I applied in June and got an interview in November. Hopefully its quicker than that now, but I wouldn't think a month or 2 is excessive in RM recruitment process.
