HMRC O/HO New recruits 2015 (after TSP applications)

I see where you're coming from, but you have to list any 'spent' convictions anyway.
This concerns an offence that will be 'filtered' under the ROO act 2013. So, if it wouldn't show up on a DBS enhanced check, should I tell them about it anyway?

How did all the new starters find their first day today? Did you do anything worthwhile?

Then I suppose it boils down to your own morality and willingness to provide transparency.

Me personally, I don't think I'd mention it.

Lots of paperwork. But we did a get an overview of the job role and tours etc. the first week will be just going over more paperwork, health and safety etc.

Please tell me they asked for your bank details

If anyone in Local Compliance in London is interested in switching with me to the Criminal Investigation department, please pm me by next Monday latest. The CI department doesn't require in depth tax knowledge and would suit people who would be interested in MI5-style work.

I've come from an accounting/tax background and thought I'd do a lot of tax modules in this department, but they train you for more investigative work here and I'd really like to switch to Local Compliance, which is only possible if anyone who has just joined/is about to join is willing to switch with me. So if any of you aren't dead set on tax and would like this opportunity, I'd really appreciate it

Some details of how this role is different to LC:

- £31k salary (O band)
- Large tax fraud cases, pretty interesting
- Office right by London Bridge, with on site gym
- Training done outside of office with hotels, food and travel fully paid for
- Can choose if you want to be mainly desk-based or want to work outside of the office

PM me if potentially interested/want to know more. I need to let them know by next week.

It's not MI5 style work so please don't give people the wrong impression.

You should probably also mention that there will be considerable unsocial hours if you are entitled to the attendance allowance that brings the O grade pay up to that level.

I have no idea if it would be allowed, sorry. I am just seeing if anyone would potentially be interested as I want to switch and I was asked if there is anyone who would be willing to switch.

The only problem is that this department requires extra checks to be completed, so even if someone were to switch with me, they would have to go through these time consuming checks.

The reason is nothing negative. It is purely out of preference - I don't feel it would align with my career aspirations. Everyone here seems to enjoy it.

Any more questions, feel free to PM but I cannot talk about the actual job because it is confidential.

I can't switch with you as I work in a different role in a completely different CS department but I'm interested in working in CI and I was just wondering what are the extra checks that need to be done? Is it the CTC and the DBS that need to be done or are there more checks?

Have you tried posting on the TSP facebook page to see if anyone wants to switch - more people might see it on there?

If there's no takers you could always start the role, stick it out for a few months and then look for an internal move to local compliance, who knows you might end up liking the work in CI!

anyone in CI department at london bridge? I started last week but havent done much since my start other then reading. Whats everyone else upto??

I have and my pre-employment checks have passed, but still nothing official.

Hey, I'm due to start in CI in November, although I'll be in Leeds.
What's it like? Can't seem to get information on any role in HMRC really!
