Finally an offer of employment!!

Post by Amyloulou »

hi guys, just thought I would keep people updated. 1st of all people who are in the middle of their application I would say now you still have quite a few more weeks yet, it is a very lengthy application with delays in the email department so be patient, secondly I originally applied on the 28th May and have just received my employment email to start on the 25th of this month, so I still have another 12 days before I even start work, But the good news is that I will definitely be starting soon and no more waiting around for the emails from the Royal Mail department. Finally would just like to say good luck to all those waiting for replies in their application. :nana :wink:

Congrats Amyloulou, that's great news. I've just finished week 3 and I love it. My feet are complaining though!

Keeping people updated haha. So 12 days ago I got the offer of employment, yesterday i had my induction which was quite fun, there was only 3 of us though, all women haha,, bit boring towards the end when no interaction was included but its done now, today was my first day in the office, was introduced to my work place coach, whom i already knew because as iv mentioned previously my mum works in the same office, then i was shown how to sort the mail into the frames so i did an hour or so on a couple of frames and then i had a little break and then was shown how to kill off mail, then came a few dvds on fire awareness, dog attacks and manual handling, was in at half 7 finished for half 11 short but sweet day. I am going out on duty tomorrow though so will feel the pain and tiredness, but looking forward to it. :wink:
