There will surely be an email at some stage?

The last group received their offers by emails and then their letters of offer and info in the post a day or two later. So I'd say emails will be sent out this evening if their posting the packs then. That's my guess.

Jimjoebob09 · 24-11-2014 12:59pm

I was told on the phone on Friday that we would receive both e-mail and post.. That they would both be sent out today so obviously post won't arrive for a day or two, hopefully get the e-mail by this evening

Too right, unreal wait! Can't help but keep checking my emails! Anybody been on to HRM at all today?

Tick tock...

I should not have followed this thread....Every time someone posts I get an email and a mild heart attack!! At this stage I'm starting to think we won't get any news today

Just turn the thread notifications to off. Check it when you want then.

Yeah I'm very much doubting it at this stage. Anyone want to volunteer to call them and post results? The aul phone can't be used where I'm working at the minute

ohthenuggles · 24-11-2014 4:49pm

I've been ringing near twice a week for the last 2-3 weeks....They are sick to death of me I'd say so I'd rather not be the one to ring, but would really love an update!

mickaleen · 24-11-2014 4:55pm

Spoke to HR there, the email will be out either this evening or tomorrow morning. The starting date is the 8th of December. Now will ye go away and do some work for the love of god

:D:D

djor88 · 24-11-2014 4:56pm

Hi everyone, I spoke to HRM today and they said that offers WILL be emailed and should be received by tomorrow morning, I'd say theyre being sent this evening.. My bet would be after 5 or so (I hope)

ShodenMcClane · 24-11-2014 4:59pm

I'd much rather they sent it this evening. Just saying...

tictac__x · 24-11-2014 5:03pm

Vetting still isnt back.. was told a month ago it was back in the office but needed to be proofed, would love to know what the delay is.. no way Im going to make this intake either, so so disapointed to say the least!

Theres going to be another one in the next couple of months, so Id fancy your chances of getting in the next time if not this time. Just hang in there

20times · 24-11-2014 5:07pm

Had similar problems with my vetting for the first intake. Know what you're going through!!!

As did I. Horrible. Just make sure you keep onto them and they'll do theit best. They're anxious to get numbers ready so I'd say they're pushing to have vetting cleared

tictac__x · 24-11-2014 5:13pm

Iv been waiting since then aswell did my interview in may, oh well cant be helped hopefully won't be too much longer. It'll come round eventually i suppose!

whoahya · 24-11-2014 5:14pm

20times · 24-11-2014 5:19pm

Are you waiting on vetting aswell?

To be honest, I dont know. I know that I was held up for ages because of Irish, but I flew through one of their assignments almost three weeks ago.
That was holding me up I reckon, but I dont know about the vetting. I never enquired about that
