Frustrating isn't it.

I've just received an email to say that checks have been successfully completed & they'll be in touch shortly to let me know the next stage of recruitment process.

I'm hoping this means my offer is no longer provisional but it we'll see.

Yeah, I think we now just have to wait to be given a start date. It’s been weeks since I passed my checks, so I actually called them yesterday to chase it up. Lady on the phone told me she told the hiring manager to contact me two weeks ago. I then received an email saying that I have to be patient and wait for further instructions and that they have hundreds of applicants to onboard.
So, just a waiting game now. Xx

Any news on a start date? I have been asked for further info on my onbaording. I hope I don't go right to the back of the line.

Thank you. Exited now & nervous too. No idea what to expect, haven't even physically spoken to anyone yet. Still need to hand my notice in at current role too. Just pleased it's finally all confirmed as I felt like I was waiting forever and started doubting I even had the job!
What further info did you have to give?
Also what area are you applying for?

Derbyshire and Staffordshire area. I got a provisional offer and going through pre employment checks. They asked for further info a few days ago about a period of unemployment. Really just want to be given a start date so I can plan as I'm moving from London to Derby.
