Pre employment checks date keeps changing??

Post by twisted_racer »

Hey guys,
I am an ex postie and in my last placement I was put on a waiting list then got a phone call out of the blue 3 months later from my interview and started the job asap.

This time round I was 'conditionally successful' once I've cleared the checks, however I've been checking my online account everyday and my 'pre employment checks' have changed 3 times from 11/07/18 - 16/07/18 - 23/07/18 today.
Does anyone know why my dates are changing but with no updates?
I've checked my spam folder everyday to ensure it's not slipped into there either.

Slightly puzzled with the dates changing if anyone can shed light on this I'd be really grateful as I'm super keen to get back into the job and stay there once and for all.

Many thanks.

I have just received a formal offer and the pre-employment checks date changed a few times on my application as well. I believe they change the date when your DBS checks come back or they update your application in anyway. In short, this appears to be perfectly normal. Mine changed from Pre-Employment Checks to OFFER just before they sent out the formal offer email.
