Hi, first off, I know the NHS can take a long time in their recruitment, but just wondered if anyone has any experience?
I was offered a p/t clerical post and received the conditional offer three days later. A week after after that, completed my occupational health visit, and two days after that, was told all my pre-employment checks were complete and I was ready for a start date. So, all went very smoothly and quickly.
The email from recruitment said I needed to provide them with a start date so an unconditional letter could be issued.
So, I phoned my new manager, who interviewed me. Embarrassingly, she had no idea who I was when I introduced myself on the phone and had to be prompted into remembering.
Tbh, she had no idea who was meant to be doing what. She told me I needed to complete my occ. health forms first. I told her this had all been done, it was only then that she'd realised she had all that information in front of her.
She then said recruitment would email me with a start date. I told her they have asked me to reply to THEM with a start date (she was sent the same email as me, but seemed to have no idea about this).
We sorted out what days/times I'd be working and she gave me a provisional start date. I emailed this info back to recruitment. Think she said she would also contact them.
However, this supposed start date is looming ever closer and I've still had no response and no unconditional offer. I emailed them yesterday (no chance of getting them on the phone) and still had no response.
Does anyone know what I'm meant to do? Just wait? Not having the unconditional offer yet is making me a bit antsy 😬
