Interview

Post by LFynn92 »

I have an interview on the 21st of july for a mail sorting position. In an email that I received it mentions; "Attached to the ‘Invite to interview’ email you received regarding booking yourself into a session time is a handbook which we require you to read and understand. Page 27 will be provided for you to complete at the recruitment event. If you have not read the handbook you may be turned away from your booked session so please ensure you make time to read this booklet."

Yet i cannot find this said booklet anywhere, the fact that it mentions that if i haven't read it I shall be turned away is making me extremely uneasy about not receving it and I don't quite know how to reach royal mail to clarify it.

The email doesn't have a reply email and i've scoured the site searching for something to contact them on but to no avail. It's quite worrying as I am really eager for the job but the fact that i don't have something which seems important is stressing me out (more stress whilst job hunting is the last thing you want.)

I've attached the booklet that I think you require as page 27 is what you fill in in this booklet. I had to do it myself.
