Hi all, I am new here and just wondered if anyone could offer any advice. I worked really hard on my application last year, got lots of experience and put in a huge amount of revision for the interview and managed to get a place on the training scheme, for which I feel very lucky. I don't want to seem insensitive to those who have worked equally hard to get a place and have not got lucky this year, but I have struggled to find the information I need, so decided to see if anyone here can help.
I started in post this week, and to be honest have pretty much had a terrible time. I had a realistic idea of the job before I started, but things are very different at the centre I have been placed at. I feel I need to give it a fair chance as these things are always difficult when you are new, but equally I know the earlier I were to resign (if that is what I ultimately decide to do), the more chance there would be that a reserve could be offered my place.
I am wondering if anyone knows how much notice I would have to give as I haven't been given a contract? Also, I am due to start the MSc course soon, would I have to repay course fees if I commence the course and then realise it really isn't right for me? Again, I don't want to waste anyone's time and money by staying later than I need to, but equally this is a huge decision to make on a whim, and I want to give it my best shot to see if I settle into the job after a few months.
Many thanks
