I recently inquired a job at a nursing home near me, with no experience in the field of health services, the nurse that was in charge there came to me about my inquiry of the job, but little did i know it was already an interview and she asked me why did I want to do the job, and so i said because I want to pursue a career in nursing and thought this would be the perfect place before I start my studies. but after a few questions etc, she seemed to be interested in me but I still had my doubts then if I had gotten the job or not, so after the interview, she told her administrator that I was a nice bloke and thought of giving me a shot and said I had passed the interview and gave me a DBS application form and so on, so I filled it up, came back the next day because I didn’t have my requirements for the DBS application and to my surprise when I came back she’s already introduced me to most of the registered nurses/care assistants that are working there and told me that I will be training with this gentleman here on this floor etc. so I thought well then, I think I aced the whole process of securing a care assistant position and I was told by her administrator that we’ll process this DBS application as soon as possible and we’ll contact you within 1 to 2 weeks so I waited…
And now a week and 2 days has passed now (Including the day I’ve posted this), I still have a positive attitude towards all of this because she seemed really promising and friendly but my question is, how long does the DBS application form process usually take? I hear it’s 1-2 weeks and what are the usual process for it? any thoughts?
EDIT: It’s a DBS Application Form actually sorry lol, huge mistake.
