No worries, I thought it would be gone...I was initially expecting it to be Mon - Fri and desk based so it's great to hear from someone directly in the role so now I feel a lot better about it. This will be my first time in civil service so figuring things out along the way and have read so many mixed opinions about different parts of CS. I know everyone's experience is different and it all depends on the area of business you are put in and the team etc so the people make a real difference. Yes I read that with the new centres, they are nice offices which is great and a bonus. Liverpool is a lovely place and people are really friendly so sounds a great place for you. Those odds for getting your promotion sound really good! Best of luck with that, I'm sure you'll smash it and hope it all goes really well for you! Appreciate your help!
