HMRC 042R Officer Caseworkers (External) October 2016

It wasn't until I read the formal offer email 6 or 7 times that I noticed the business area. Its right at the start of the email. Mine reads:

Dear ...

Vacancy: 042R Tax Professional Higher Officer Caseworker Post

Business: Customer Compliance Group

Mine says the same as yours and that a decision as to your dept will be made in the first 12 weeks.... I start a week Monday

Don't turn down the job you've come this far. Chase again on Monday and see if you get a response in the week 😊

I was put on the waiting list after the competency statements for Liverpool but have now been given an interview date for next week! Yay! Pleased to hear I'm not the only teacher looking to get out!

Still haven't had pre-employemebt checks email with documents to return, pretty sure they have forgotten about me or sent to wrong person. Sent them an email Thursday and no reply as if yet.

I've not had this yet either..

Please stop stressing. I am an applicant from Bristol therefore I'm lucky as we got offered first. But it's still been nearly 5 months..... and I believe that's quite speedy!

Personally I think it's absolutely worth it to be part of the SC

If you have been offered a provisional role then you're sorted unless you've been fired numerous times or you're a serial killer xxx

Just found this forum, i'm not a student but currently going through pre-employment checks for Cardiff. Wish i'd found this sooner. Have worked In
social housing for the last 20 years, currently a caseworker for tenants in serious rent arrears and thought I have a lot of relevant skills for this job, glad HMRC thought so too. Looking forward to meeting all the Cardiff people soon!

Have had Provisional Offer for Cardiff (my only preference) . My pre-employment checks are being done now, references have been requested and medical questionnaire completed on line. Hoping to receive formal offer next, no skeletons in my closet so don't see any reason why I'd be declined at this stage :smile:

Have you got the candidate pack, which should have been attached to your email? I would read up on the competencies and prepare some examples using the competency do's and dont's. Best advise is to prepare for your interview and use the STAR technique to answer the questions 😊

How long after accepting the provisional offer did your employment checks begin? Did you have to send numerous emails to chase them up?

Also, where will you be based?

I accepted my provional offer for Nottingham 11 days ago and have not had the employment checks email. Emailed on Friday but no reply.

So just had a call saying I need to take extra documentation and a DBS certificate to the Nottingham Office for the next stage to commence.

I responded that i supplied all the neccesary documents at interview but was told that I should have taken my DBS certificate. This was certainly not a requirement and most applicants wouldn't have one anyway. I have now been asked to go during a Wednesday daytime which is very difficult as i'm a teacher.

So confused!!

I'm not really overly surprised to see so many teachers going for these jobs with the work life balance on offer. Know there's you and ljohndylan. Any others? What is your reason for getting out? Mine is after 10 years of primary I realised I had no time for anyone or anything other than teaching. That included my 3 kids. Now on supply and loving having time, just not the pay.
