Hi All,
I've done the online tests (as mentioned in my other post). Is THAT the website we use to check our progress?
Mine is the Talent Q Assessment website and currently says that I've completed two online assessments.
I hope my other post didn't come across as too keen; I'm just ready for a change for the better.

Also...
Every job I see advertised seems to be for 25 hours per week. Is there ever a job that offers more hours? Or what's the likelihood of being offered extra hours each week?
I currently work 40+ hours and could keep that job as part time if fortunate enough to get RM job but, ideally, would leave current job and do enough hours at RM.
Thanks in advance.

In my office they are crying out for people to do more hours. The job I applied for was Wednesday to Saturday but they wanted me to do Monday and Tuesday as well.

Oh that's really great to hear that. Thank you.
The job I've applied for is also Wednesday to Saturday. Here's hoping!
The wait (and it's only been a week) is painful already.

Re: Confused...
Don't underestimate how physically draining the job is before you go wishing for overtime to supplement your income. I do a lot of hours myself, but many of the new posties here at our place on 25hrs or similar per week are shattered after just 3 solid days of delivery. Expect usually to walk about 8 miles in a day; one day when I did a lot of overtime I walked 19 miles, which even at a relaxed pace can be pretty demanding in this heat.

I know what you mean wannabeek. I've just done Tuesday to Saturday as I new entrant and I'm shattered. I consider myself to be quite fit and I've always been a walker but walking for 3-3.5 hours a day is really tiring!

Re: Confused...
Thank you so much for that advice. The trouble is that I'd NEED to earn more than 25 hours gives.
Currently I'm on my feet all day from 5 20 until 2pm at work. Then two hours at the gym. Daily.
