CQC interview

647 replies

Ainsleysbbqbible · 29/02/2024 17:31

Hello!
I am a usual Mumsnetter, but changed username.

I had an interview with CQC for a inspector role just over two weeks ago, they said they'd be in touch either way by end of last week or beginning of this week. The portal says my application is "in review" and no change since before interview.

How long shall I give it until I follow up, or shall I even follow it up at all? It's a job I've wanted for a while but I'm unsure of what the realistic timescales are with these sorts of organisations!

Thanks

Just wandering if anyone else applied for MH inspector midlands on here? And if they have heard anything yet?

Yes I received the same email. I really hope it won’t be too much longer! The wait is driving me crazy 😩🤣

Would be nice! I interviewed for another job last week and got an offer today, got a few days to decide, but honestly thinking about taking it.

ThisLemonFatball · 19/08/2026 10:06

My application has now changed to closed yesterday, yet I haven’t heard anything from them. Does this mean I have been rejected and has anyone else got an update? Thanks!

Hey, honestly not sure! Was this for ASC central? Did they send you any email?

KmBee · 19/08/2026 21:45

No email & nothing has updated on my portal, it still says ‘in review’ (ASC Central Network).

KSBJ · 20/08/2026 16:09

I had a phone call this morning to say I had got the job!! Hope you all hear back soon too (if you haven’t already) 🤞x

Well done you! Did they give you an actual start date? I've not heard anything (South area) would be great to know either way before my call in the afternoon tomorrow with the other job!

Congratulations

Did you apply for central network too?

KmBee · 26/08/2026 18:25

Just to update, I was successful at interview, but no vacancies in my area or higher scoring applicants were offered the immediate roles, so I’m on the ‘Successful Applicant - Offer Ready’ list!

Divine2025 · 26/08/2026 21:39

Hi Everyone.

Has anyone moved from social work, adult social care to cqc inspector role. If anyone has done that, please share how you have found the transition and what has been positive for you so far and the negatives.

KSBJ · 26/08/2026 23:40

Thank you for the congratulation messages!

@JollyKaw no start date as of yet, I had an email and had to complete and confirm my identity and now awaiting a message from the onboarding team to get the process started and arrange a start date. I have to give 12 weeks notice to my current job so will still be a while for me yet! 😩

@KmBee congratulations also on being successful! Hopefully a vacancy in your area becomes available soon! 🤞

@ThePoliteViper yes, central network ☺️
