      Nice one, but would you pass any credit policy

      * Just checking, as it'd be rather daft applying for regulated and/or financial jobs that will fail you upon CRA check if it's mandatory for a CRA check...

        There was no stipulation for it in the job role criteria as its an IT based role.

        Also got yet another Sainsburys interview to arrange. This time for nights which would suit me better.

          Which will usually entail a credit search as you have direct access to financial systems.... I had to get scored, and it is higher than a customer, I know that much mate.

          Just saying, be aware that all banks will credit search you for any job with them - IT is one of the worse as you have access levels staff generally don't.

          Good luck, hope it works out for you...

            Will see how it goes. Attempt and maybe fail or fail to attempt and definitely fail. Its better than being stabbed in the face with a large stick

                Why do you think i had to create an email SOLELY for Job Applications??
                101 emails sent with CVs attached since May

                Then theres at least 25 Apprenticeship applications

                And then likely another 50+ (each) on sites like Monster , CwJobs, TotalJobs.

                Then the odd few here and there from Sainsburys Asda Tesco McDs The council etc etc.

                I'd love to see my JSA sanctioned for apparent "lack of Jobsearching" Cos with all the evidence i have it would show that they are totally wrong.


                Also i have RSS feeds from Monster , CwJobs, TotalJobs, Council
                Emails from DWP, Asda, and a few others too.

                Its a constant slog.

                Well best be getting off to interview.

                  Well been given wrong address for my interview. Fantastic.

                  This is why I hate all colleges with a passion as they can't ever get anything right

                    Re: Kilasuits Diary (debt free and life improvements)

                    got the right address which was a half hour drive from the address i was given so went straight there (college muck up so was understood) Seemed like a good interview and apparantly i'm the strongest candidate

                    I then got a phonecall from the other local college for another apprenticeship interview on thurs @ 1105 with a local HA so could be good getting in there.

                    Then got on phone to arrange the sainsburys interview which is for Tomorrow at 2105

                    so my week gets more and more busy.

                    Saves me spending money thou.

                    my week looks like this
                    Monday - Had apprenticeship interview after mess up with times
                    Tuesday - Sainsburys interview for nights temp @ 2105
                    Wednesday - All day Assessment with Barclays starting @ 9am but gotta be on the road for 7:30am
                    Thursday - Apprenticeship interview @ 1105 and then court @ 15:45
                    Friday - tesco assessment @ 14:30 (will then lead on to interview)

                    No rest for the wicked it seems

                      Your determination to make things work and not give up will pay off in the end

                      No one can accuse you of not trying your hardest

                          I'm no Buddhist but I do believe that everything happens for a reason. You strike me as someone who can make their way in the world without the need to rely on social housing so maybe this is the kick in the bum you need to prove yourself to yourself as well as to everyone else. You can do this and you'll look back and say "I told you so" to your doubters
