Well from the beginning of the BFO Heathrow recruitment since Sept last year, it's been 7 months since my application and am still waiting. This is the longest recruitment process I've ever encountered in my life.
Just checking, anyone accepted as bfo at Heathrow, but not had the sc link yet?

im still waiting, it would be good to check on your application with home office, mine was flagged up for address change and they didnt notify me till i made contact first.

this long process is certainly keeping me up at night!

Nope just got a phonecall today when I was on lunch. Good timing!

So lucky because I didn't pick my date it was picked for me but I was stressed because I'm on holiday for my mums 50th end of May and I get back on 1st June. And then I get offered 2nd June. Brilliant luck!

Wow, that is lucky!

How much notice do you have to give to your current employer? I have to give 6 weeks notice so I wish this SC would hurry and clear lol. To be fair this Friday would be 3 weeks since I submitted, but it's so difficult to be patient!
