Prison Officer Applications
Re: Prison Officer Applications
Congratulations, all good then.
It’s too bad that stupidity isn’t painful. Ignorance is one thing, but our society thrives increasingly on stupidity
Start of vetting to the call 17 weeks 2 days.

Re: Prison Officer Applications
That means you are now in vetting. Roughly 8 weeks but known to be a lot longer at times.

Re: Prison Officer Applications
I think that means that your vetting has been completed and sent to A & C for decision on the outcome of the vetting. If they need further info, it will be sent back to the vetting team...If I'm correct they can send it back 3 times before they make the final decision...
So you are very close to completion I think...

Re: Prison Officer Applications
Mercedes, once Vetting started, it had the "pre-employment checks are being being carried out" message, then it changed to "we will contact you shortly to advise you of the next step" - I got the call a few days after that.
