Has anyone been put on royal mail waiting list for future jobs? If they have did they ever contact you?

Joe K asked:

Also do i have to go to another interview with them as they said i passed the assessment, just no job with them at the minute and would i get the job ahead of other applicates that arent on the waiting list?

    No, when recruiters tell you they’re putting your application on file, that file is the shredder. Sorry, but my mom is a recruitment manager, and she told me it’s a polite way of telling you you didn’t get the job. I would move on and look for other opportunities.

    I was put on their waiting list when i applied in 1977 (bit far back i know) lol but about 6 months later they got in touch with a job. Had to go through two weeks training before it was confirmed

    I went to a Royal Mail interview about 5 years ago and the they said the same to me. I first got called back as a Christmas casual and then called back for a PT job (30hours though this can be different from office to office) the following February so about 8 weeks later. I am still working for them 5 years later.

    My advice is don’t wait for the call see if you can get a job in the meantime but if you passed the assessment I think you have a better chance than those who apply on the off chance. Good luck, its a hard job but can be very rewarding.
