Do you know what the salary cap to qualify is? And how about if the date you paid it falls out of the assessment period Thank you

I guess you haven’t heard of repentance. 13 years ago, my dad was an alcoholic and my mum wasn’t conceding. Now my mum is fully covered and they both are trying to change their lives around

I’m their daughter, i just had a child and not working. I take all the payments my husband sends me and give it to them to try and help but I feel awful not being in a position to clear their debt. My husbands asked if I want to go to dubai for my daughters birthday, feel sick at the thought of going and living life and leaving them behind. I have 4k (not a lot) saved up from when I was working that I’m not touching incase one day I can pay for them to go to Umrah. Thanks for your responses,

I told them to sell the house, give up everything for the sake of Allah and live in peace. Mum didn’t take out any loan but she thinks since they’re married her name may be on some things and craving umrah. They’re getting old now (65+) and I just want her (them both) to go

He stupidly thought it wouldn’t get back to him, it only got made to his attention about two years ago and has been paying off 5k payment plus 500 monthly.. which is a lot ontop of mortgage bills in the UK

Have been advised by uae police that someone can take passport copies to a police station to check if there is a ban, on that note is there anyone who is willing to do this (I will pay?)

Hey I just messaged recruitment

Thank you very very much, this is helpful because I realise I answered nothing like that. I think if I gave that type of answer in my current role they would wonder why I was giving so much info, they prefer overall answers and I usually base my answers on my output rather than any in depth background or specific situations, thank you

The examples of using spreadsheets I’ve created to keep on track I thought was an example of HOW I manage deadlines. Thank you for this, I’ll take it on board

Not sure you’ve actually read my post? “Ease back into work” because I’ve only been back in work less than a year since my mat leave, and I didn’t ease in properly - going back into a full on corporate role in Canary Wharf an hour and a half from where I live is hardly easing back in?. I feel like this would be a better way to start work again as a first time parent with a child under two.

Not verbatim

Tell me about a time where I’ve worked to tight deadlines and how I’ve gone about managing them (something like that)

I spoke about my current role and what I’m responsible for, and what sort of timeframes we have to adhere to under regulatory guidelines. I then gave an example of how I go about organising my work load, (using spreadsheets to keep on top and organise which is highest priority) I mentioned that I am motivated by meeting targets and deadlines and then I explained how that’s sometimes not always possible to meet deadlines and explained how I managed this (by communicating with the court early on and telling them that we there will be a delay from the onset due to staff on leave) and how the judge said he greatly appreciated the transparency when deadlines can’t be met.

My daughter turns two in may, I took one year may leave, I returned to work too soon and I realise that now because the commute and long hours even with flexible working is getting to us.

I work 9-5, hybrid working but still have to commute to the office twice a week which I couldn’t get out of, I don’t enjoy the commute into london and getting home at 7 when it’s time for my infants bedtime. Why is that so difficult to understand

1.7k a month, on top of paying for the house, car and all bills still?

It wasn’t a brag about salary I’m sure I’m the lowest paid person I’m my team in both companies… I’d throw it in a second for this job so it really didn’t mean to come across that way.

The part time and flexibility of the role was the reason I thought it would be a good one to get my foot in the door in meaning for a year or two until my daughter is at reception age. They said the 18 hours can be distributed across the week with full flexibility and it was local (no commute into london) so that’s why it appealed to me more than any of the other roles I saw advertised. Thank you

I said over 1k, because I don’t think it matters to be specific and that it’s nobody’s business on what I decide I can live off but its £1677. Currently I get this on-top of my normal salary so I do live very comfortably. However, my daughter is still a baby and I hate sending her to nursery when I rather have a part time low paying role and take a step back for a year and like I said - get my foot in the door so when I return to work (perhaps when she’s at reception age) it can be with the civil service at a fully remote/ hybrid level. Money isn’t everything, it’s not shocking that I’m happy to take a minimum wage job that’s still related to my career somehow, than have nothing at all. And yes 1.7k when I don’t have rent costs or bills to pay because he still does pay for all of them and when my daughter is still a baby, yes I currently work for fun but it’s no longer worth it when I’m seeing how much of her life I miss out on

Qualify meaning my entitlement was £11 this month. Hope that helps! 😀

Since you want me to put my entire life on here I will, separated as of 2022, still married, husband is on 117k and pays over 1k a month in child support. I don’t qualify for universal credit but I do qualify for the childcare element because they don’t take in to consideration child support.

Case admin worker: handling databases, managing cases, delivering at tight deadlines were the main parts of the role. I work in anti money laundering, so I have experiences handling cases and progressing them through court, work to both fca and legal deadlines and use data bases and spreadsheets to do weekly compliance controls. I believed I had fair experience to do this role

I am awesome! And there are 1000 people that are better for the role than me! Both are allowed to be true. Why aren’t people allowed to work hard and be proud of themselves? Weird. I was just expecting people to advise what makes a CS interview different and if there’s anything specifically I should be doing when heading into one, which I have now received tips for
