    No specific day or date, just whenever HR get approval from the up aboves.
    It's a good job I bought my boyfriend Dark Souls 3 yesterday. Looks like he's gonna be needing it.

    thanks buddy. have to make the most of congratulations on here as in the real world, folks are.....well lets just say not too congratulatory.

    as above, seemingly 5 weeks or so.

    did not think they'd be going out this week so they cant be predicted to accurately.

    If you don't mind me asking folks, when did you all do your medical? How long have you be waiting for "the call" and what do they actually say on the phone? Are you given a date for induction weekend or commencement of training?

    Apologies for 101 questions.

    I done mine 2nd week of March. SMT the same day, but results got delayed because of Easter Break. Iamveryhopeful is the same as I.

    Both been waiting a month now.

    So if the next set of calls are in another 5-6 weeks, I guess there is still a chance I might get one.
    Bloody bell, this is all so stressful.

    Very much so.
    Seeing as we all thought they wouldn't go out till next week, i had a hope you'd be in this one.


    It is very stressful aye, we're all on the same ship. You'll get there!

    same as Delilahbeau. My medical was just over a month ago.

    got my letter like two days later. but you hear nothing regarding the hair follicle test.

    On the phone, you have to confirm if you address has changed, change of partner and they ask you if you are still interested in the role (I'd love to know how many say no at this stage)

    you get induction day dates, a start date and she congratulates you.

    :)

    I don't have a clue. There aren't too many people who get in and post on the boards, so it's hard to tell that way. :confused:
