Thank you for responding guysSo what we’re the shift patterns like? I also found out they are closing or closed the Leicestershire training centre?
No they’re not closing it because I start my training there in a couple of weeks. You get booked into a hotel for two weeks. Was offered the job last week. Already got my employee number and just ordered uniform to be ready on first day of training. Its all done via email. Recruitment process was quite long, lot of waiting around for phone calls and emails, before a face to face interview with 3 managers. And then more checks and more wait. I was kinda looking forward to it but there’s been a change in circumstances (personal not professional) so don’t know yet. I can’t really tell you much about the actual job yet but if you want to ask about recruitment process just fire away.
Yes they are closing it it was announced whilst I still worked there building is up for sale

They never mentioned anything about closing it in the interview or any follow up conversations I’ve had with them. Anyways I must be one of the last trainees there then.
I had to wait around 2 months after my telephone interview for my recruitment day which just involved an interview with my manager and area manager. Had my interview on a Friday and was offered the job on the following Monday. Interview consists of general questions and a few competency based questions.
I had the choice of either Leicester which start date was in a week or so time or in august which is most likely going to be in oldbury. I chose oldbury as Its closer to me.
I started a thread on this topic around a month ago and got really good replies from people who had worked there. I made my mind up that the grass isn’t always greener but if you don’t try for yourself, you’re always left wondering and also, everyone has different experiences.
I’ve worked for a big company before in a different sector and one thing I’ve experienced is that things are always changing for the good and for the bad.
The shifts consists of early mornings (around 6am starts), afternoons (around 5ish) and then nights (around 7.30) I think I was told. From what I gather, you’ve got to be committed in order to succeed so weigh up the pros and cons and don’t do it half hearted before agreeing.
If i think of anything else, I’ll post but you can also ask questions
