Application process

If you aren’t applying for an advertised vacancy, don’t worry. There are usually a number of vacancies that are waiting to be advertised.
After you apply, you may need to wait for up to four weeks before the next stage. This can be due to limited vacancies or other activities occurring within the area or office of your choice.
