How long for contract?

Post by lisag42 »

Been offered position, start date & induction dates confirmed, pre employment checks complete. How long does it take to get my contract?

Handing my notice in on Monday (will enjoy working that bank holiday :Very Happy ) but a bit nervous as I still don’t have my contract although everything has been confirmed.

My contract came about a week after I started

Thanks, that makes me feel a bit better. Am a I right in thinking until we get that, we won’t get our payroll number so cannot order uniform?

Yes that's right. Again I spent about just over a week in my own clothes.
