Hi can people who have been informed that they were successful how long did it take for you to receive any paperwork to fill out for vetting etc?

Judging by the thread, the process has been at varying paces for different people - for me, I got notified of being successful (ie in the candidate pool in late November last year), received my official offer late Jan and then my vetting forms about 2 weeks ago - so pretty much 4 months from successful email to starting vetting. I think others have been faster though.

Hi, I received the paperwork a few weeks after, but I know everyone has been different.

Can I ask whether your vetting has completed yet or whether you have heard anything further about a start date?

I am in the same boat but haven’t done a medical yet. Vetting forms sent back in Jan and a substance test completed. With regards to the medical, we’re you invited by email? Where did you have to go for it?? I’m based in the north east so wondering if it will be another journey somewhere for it.... thanks

I got the newsletter too, but I took it as a positive sign? I don't think they would put you back in the candidate pool ... I am currently in the process of negotiating my start date so at least I sincerely hope not lol. Anyone experiencing slow email responses though? Usually they reply quickly to me but lately it seems to take quite long ...

My first vetting round came through in December, second in January, offer in February. I was offered May or alternatively August.

No, this started before Covid-19 was a serious pandemic.

Just accepted my offer, completed all the vetting forms they’ve given me so guessing no communication with them is a good thing! Also passed medical and psych assessment. Misuse test was done a while ago. Should be good to go I imagine, has anybody who has accepted an offer had any updates with regards to possible start dates?

I’m in the same situation, I am assuming we are waiting to hear that our vetting is complete and then we will receive a start date?

Must be! How long ago did you send you’re betting off?

I had my assessment centre on the 15th, so keeping everything crossed although I imagine there will be some delay now. But for those that have gone through the medical etc, is there a hearing test? And if so is it a pass/fail. I have previously failed the police hearing test for hearing loss in one ear so this is something I am concerned about. My hearing loss does not cause me any issues day to day and I don't need a hearing aid.

Beginning of Jan, what about you?
