Has anyone got an official offer yet
I think the official offer is the email we got assigning us to a Department? As far as I am aware we are just waiting on the details to come through from the Departments we were assigned to.

Edited to say: Ahh ok see what you mean. Just checked job guidance notes and it says that week commencing 18 March Departments will start contacting successful candidates for onboarding. Imagine this will include pre appointment checks including security clearance. I haven't heard from my Department yet.

Have you been contacted again since we got the assignment email to Department in other words have you heard from your assigning department yet? Thanks.
I've just been contacted by the FCDO with a conditional offer and a number of forms to complete ahead of security clearance.
I'm sure everyone else will hear back today or tomorrow

I haven't had any reply yet from my hiring department. It said in email from recruitment team to contact them in 4 weeks if you haven't heard anything. Seems like a very long time to have to wait but got no choice but wait I guess.
I’ve been assigned to the Cabinet Office. Has anyone heard anything since the assignment emails?

Hi, I’ve been assigned to the CO too - in York. Had an email last week asking for my DOB but nothing else. Are you York or London?

I’m in London, I got the DOB email but haven’t heard since.

I’m chasing in a couple days as want to get it nailed on so I can sort accommodation. I’ll let you know if I hear. Have you any idea of start date?
I sent an email last week, when the 4 weeks elapsed, to GESR to say the Cabinet Office hadn't contacted the next day I got the DOB. No clue about start date.
