Yeh probably be fixed in time for next years Christmas Casuals

If your call relates to a rejected application, please note, there are only 3 sections that will cause your application to reject. These are 1) have you applied for or worked for Angard in the last 4 weeks, 2) have you applied for a Christmas job this year and 3) Are you authorised to work in the U.K.

I also keep getting this when applying for a position as a Postman/Postwoman with Driving.

Its an automatic rejection and i don't know why. I have a clean current driving licence, no convictions of any kind, i am absolutely baffled as to why my application is being automatically rejected. Is there a contact number i can reach to try and work out why i am being rejected like this automatically?

you need to answer no to the question if you've already aplplied for a christmas job, even if you have. another broken thing about the site.

If I have an interview to the same place for different shift times do I only attend one, or both?

I was wondering if anyone can help me with this. I got a pdf attrachment of a Royal Mail Booklet. Do I have to print this booklet out and take it to recruitment interview?

In the past you were only allowed to submit one Xmas casual application per cycle.

If you've tried to fiddle the system I suspect there's a very good chance your application will be cancelled further down the line.

May be somebody knows how many hours Christmas Casuals usually have per week? I asked this questions in Helpline, but the answer was - we are unable to guarantee the amount of work hours that will or may be offered to a casual employee. I understand, it can be more or less, but may be somebody has experience from the last year?

37.5 hours per week is the norm, I'd say.

But, as they said, it is determined by the needs of the business.

If you have a angard contract then it'll be Angard that contact you.

Royal Mail would contact Angard who then contact you,

Hi, wonder if you can help me. My son has applied for a Christmas Casual position and has an interview slot next week. He is at university and is travelling down by train and missing lectures so he can attend. I have read somewhere that people have turned up at the registration events to learn that the jobs have all been filled - is this a possibility?

Also he would not be able to start until Monday 14th December will this be a problem?

He is very keen to work full time for a couple of weeks and hopefully repeat each year but don't want him to travel for 8 hours if there is little chance of a position - I accept there is no guarantee that he will get the job.

Thanks
