When will I know if I've been selected for interview?

We regret we are unable to notify every candidate who has applied for the position. We will only contact those candidates selected for interview, usually by post.

Can I send further information in support of my application form?

We do not accept postal Curriculum Vitae as a substitute for all, or any part of the application form you are completing

Can I use a previous online application to apply for another position?

Yes, it will save you time by duplicating the information you entered on your previous application. However, we advise you to tailor your new application to the position you are applying for. To enable this feature you must select the relevant option upon starting a new application.

Can I apply for a job after the closing date has elapsed?

Ensure that the application form is submitted no later than noon on or before the closing date. Applications received after the published closing date will not be considered unless exceptional circumstances apply.

Can I partly complete my application form and come back to it later?

Yes you can. Your changes will be saved everytime you click the next or previous buttons within the online application form.

What will happen to my personal information?

We strictly adhere to the Data Protection Act 1998. The information you supply us will be held on computer, and held as manual data until you decided to delete this information yourself through your online DISC jobs account or a period of 6 months has elapsed from the closing date of the postion you have applied for. All the information supplied by you is strictly confidential and will only be used for the purpose of recruitment and personnel administration only.

What is ISA and VBS?

The law has changed and from July 2010 anyone working or volunteering with vulnerable people, such as those in prison, can register with the ISA. More importantly by November 2010 anyone working or volunteering with vulnerable people must be registered – from then on in it will be illegal to take on new people who are not ISA registered. This new scheme is called the Vetting and Barring Scheme (VBS) and ISA has been established to implement the scheme and make decisions over who should be barred from working with vulnerable people.
