Got a verbal NHS job offer Monday — how long does the conditional offer letter usually take?
Hi all, following from my last two posts I’ve gotten an NHS social work role🥳
I got a verbal offer for an NHS role on Monday and I’m trying to get a sense of timelines. Called the hiring manager today (Friday morning) and she said she’s put it forward so I should receive the conditional offer letter today yet still nothing has come through. She asked me to call her Monday afternoon if I haven’t received it by then.
At the interview I brought all my ID, qualification certificates and an enhanced DBS (on the update service) and the manager scanned everything and confirmed she’d uploaded it to my trac for right to work purposes.
My questions are:
• How long did your conditional offer letter take after a verbal offer?
• Since my ID, right to work docs and DBS were already scanned and uploaded at interview stage, will I have to resubmit them through the NHS jobs portal or will they carry over?
• What’s left after the conditional offer, is it just references and occupational health at that point?
• Any idea on realistic start date timelines from conditional offer to first day?
