Sending off my cv...

Hiya!

I'm posting my CV off this week and just wondered how soon should I expect to hear back from anyone? Also what sort of things do they ask you on your phone interview and how long roughly does it last? Wanna do it sooooooo bad but I'm really nervous so I'm probably going to mess it up!! Would love to hear from anyone from Essex, UK who's also applying.

 

Good luck hun! They got back to me in 3 weeks and let you know if u have made the phone interview xx

 

I sent my CV off on the weekend by e-mail and recieved an e-mail back yesterday saying they'd be in touch within 4 weeks... just waiting now I suppose!

 

Thanks! I've been waiting a week but it feels like a month - I'm so desperate to hear back from them, with good news hopefully!

Hey hun dnt worry about waiting you'll get an email discussing times and dates which they are available and they work around you and your availability...i got the email and replied, the mornign after i got a phone call...it woke me up actually but the interview is quite simple as long as you're v happy and chatty and answer honestly and be ureself on the phone its all gravy! I have a second face 2 face interview in september! Good Luck anyway xxxx

 

what exactly is a cv i have never had to write one b4.....

 

A CV tells the employer all about you, your education, work experience etc..

 

thanks i asked my parents earlier today as well

 

I just sent my CV off like an hour ago, so I don't expect anything to quickly lol. The yummy job people are really nice, when I had my phone interview back in Feb (the first time I applied) it was almost like talking to a friend on the phone. Remember to smile on the phone, loads of peope say this but it is true and it makes the difference, people can tell somehow.

Good luck and hope you hear something soon.

 

I just sent mine off

Elliot, which one are you applying for? I'm glad other people are sending stuff around this time too I got th impression it had all happened already

 

I thought they'd stopped accepting CV's?? I sent mine off about 4 weeks ago and haven't heard anything and everyone else seems to have had their phone interviews and the dates for their ftf's.

 

Hi Tiddelypom, I am applying for the year long cultural representative programme. Which one are you going for?

 

theyve not stopped accepting cv's ....theyve stopped accepting people for the feb positions, cause as you aware, the face to face interviews start in 5 weeks.

so if ya apply now ull be on record for the next lot of future crps which theyll interview in feb

 

See.. that makes much more sense! But ugh.. February is so far away.

 

Ahha well I am applying for the summer program next year. i just started panicking that I was too late! I've sent off query and cv to yummy and apparently the interviews will be in november... so far away!

Shame the summer people won't get to meet the cultural rep people starting in september everyone sounds so nice!

 

Hey! Just noticed this post, I'm from Essex too so thought I would say hi! Whereabouts in Essex are you? I applied last year and got through to the f2f but had to pull out after realising I wouldn't have enough funds to go, but looking to apply again once I have, and still visit the boards occassionally! Good luck with your application.

Vanessa
