When did you get that? I haven't received anything since doing the VIReceived the email from DAC Beachcroft saying that further update post-VI will be provided in late May
Received it this morning (it's automatic I believe, I haven't sent any email to them after completing the VI)When did you get that? I haven't received anything since doing the VI
I also work full time. I don’t work in a regulated industry as such but I would need to get permission from my manager and HR in order to undertake vac schemes as they count as employment. The other thing you have to consider is that realistically you won’t be able to do very many vac schemes due to holiday allowance (usually 25 days but will vary). Employers won’t always be happy with you taking your full amount of annual leave and then asking for unpaid leave on top of that. You may also struggle asking for time off to do long vac schemes i.e. longer than 2 weeks. I have also found that although vac schemes for students are convenient as they’re during terms breaks the schemes will often clash with regular school holidays so if you have parents in your work team it’s unlikely your request for time off will be prioritised (but again this will vary). I have also found that some vac scheme offers can be given very last minute. Normally you have to give your employer twice the amount of notice of the time you want off. So if you want to book 1 week off your employer will usually require at least 2 weeks notice (again will vary depending on your contract).Congratulations on your vac schemes! Have you found your employer is receptive to you taking leave for interviews or schemes?
Hmm, I checked both my email and spam....absolutely nothing. For some reason this doesn't feel like a great sign :/Received it this morning (it's automatic I believe, I haven't sent any email to them after completing the VI)
Sure, will dm youHmm, I checked both my email and spam....absolutely nothing. For some reason this doesn't feel like a great sign :/
Would you be able to dm me the info?
I haven’t received it either! I wouldn’t worry though, there’s often a delay when they send out emails in batchesHmm, I checked both my email and spam....absolutely nothing. For some reason this doesn't feel like a great sign :/

Thanks, you know how anxiety inducing this whole process can be! ☺️I haven’t received it either! I wouldn’t worry though, there’s often a delay when they send out emails in batches
Out of curiousity, is it based on the civil service values?Has anyone been successful in applying to the civil service for policy roles? I am applying now and I understand its mostly based on if you fit their description and would love some guidance to how you can be successful
Hi! Mine took like 2-3 days to come through, I thought it was stuck in spam or something but just took a while
Appreciate both of you letting me know. There's no email correspondence on my portal either. It's easy to just assume they've already written you off and that you're not getting an email because they'll be sending you a PFO sooner rather than later 😬I haven’t received it either!

I know this process is super stressful, but I honestly wouldn’t assume this at all!Appreciate both of you letting me know. There's no email correspondence on my portal either.

I have an offer from the Fast Stream so let me know if I can help with anything!Has anyone been successful in applying to the civil service for policy roles? I am applying now and I understand its mostly based on if you fit their description and would love some guidance to how you can be successful
PFO from Irwin Mitchell London office, gutted about this one! This is my second cycle applying to them, I even had my app reviewed by someone at the firm and they gave it the green light :/
I didn't apply to many vac schemes this year but I still haven't managed to get past app stage in 2 cycles 😅
