ParcelForce Chorley Vacancies

Post by dave_s »

Anybody know what the recruitment time-frames are for the new Chorley processing centre?

I applied a couple of weeks ago for a processing operative position and did the online test but have heard nothing since.

When I sign into the site it just says 'application under review'.

I guess they're so overjoyed with the quality of my application that they're just savouring the moment, right? :Very Happy

Don't know anyone else who's applied and no idea about numbers.

Be interesting to know when the first start dates are though.

Well Preston mc only has 300 staff so I can't see parcel force down the road having more than that!

I got an email inviting me for an interview and I booked it online.

I've just got back and it went really well (I think!!) From what they said the start date would be around 19th August!

Good luck everyone :-)

How was the interview was it a structured style with pre arranged questions or a chat going through your application?
