    That’s true, give them a call and see what they say, please follow up here so the rest of us know if we need to call them as well or not


    Ok so I rung them there and they confirmed they got my application, they said the system DID NOT send out acknowledgments and if you wanted one you had to ask for it.

    That’s good, well good that they got it and not so good for us... I wonder is it worth me ringing too just to confirm that they got mine?

    I just selected option 3 when you ring up and then just ask to speak to somebody regarding recruitment, after that just explain you want to know if they got your application

    Just called there, after being transferred at least 4/5 times I then got someone who was able to tell me that because I sent mine on the 7/8th December that they Equality department hasn’t sent it to HR yet.... Was told to ring back in a few days to see if they had received it yet, by which time recruitment will have been closed and if they don’t have it then I have missed out....

    Just wondering mate, could you do me a favor and ask them when they think they will be giving correspondence out regarding if we are processed to the next stage or not? If you dont mind that is, I just dont want to be ringing them again just to ask that lol.

    Hey. Did anyone have an issue ticking the box at the bottom of the application form?
    My computer won’t seem to let me tick it or place a tick in the box?

    Surely you're going to have to print it off to sign it? Just tick the box with a pen.

    Does anyone know of any time scales with these things from application to interview?

    So you printed it and scanned it in again? I assumed with the form being able to be edited that it was all done on the computer.

    If you accidently opened it as read only it will only let you fill in text boxes and won't let you use formated things like tick boxes

    Am... That tick box is an uneditable auto ticked box. By signing your name and dating it you are agreeing. Sorry to say you have wasted time

    Thanks Banterbus. I was able to get it working on a PC, wouldn’t work on my Mac.
    The equality monitoring form still doesn’t Work properly but got the tick working 😊
