Any idea how long PECS usually take? 6th Feb my checks started. My DBS came through in the post a week ago.

Mine was less than 2weeks. Dbs was cleared in less than a week but got the letter via post after

Started today and it was amazing. Great team. They didn’t look stressed at least what I saw. We were 5 in number. Couldn’t do much cos the systems weren’t just working. Closed before 2pm.

Aw that's great news, a great team is always a great sign of things. Building some rapport with colleagues in the early stages would be my priority. Systems weren't working 😂 and an early finish, sounds good! My pre-employment checks completed today btw. Waiting to hear about a start date 😄

Does anyone know if these roles/ recuriment has been paused on this due to current cuts and savings? Still on a reserve but seen the announcement of cuts and filling roles from other areas of business to save money.

It's hard to say, but I'd guess with the push to get people back into work I'd say it's more likely the DWP and work coaches would less likely to be affected. Just me guessing though.

Hi everyone,
Just wondering if anyone else is waiting to hear back on the outcome of their prerecorded interview from the 718 UC Work Coach role (Northwest England)? Looking for peeps to commiserate with on the long wait to hear back 😂
Thanks!


We are in the same shoe..I sent a mail to them and was told I'm No 201 on the reserve list lol..

How’s it going with your training? I’m due to start in 3 weeks. Wondering what to expect.
