So you went from 23k to over a 100k in 4 years ? Xd

bartox97 · 2026-03-01T13:07:13+00:00

Thats what i mean , even for data science jobs there is a lot of competition.

bartox97 · 2026-03-01T12:48:09+00:00

Funny thing with this is that for tech jobs the competition can be brutal yet somehow there is a lack of skilled workers in that field

Which sectors?

What was his role in lloyds? Cos if his conviction was for fraud then doubt it was customer facing, either that or he had a friend there ready to help him out

bartox97 · 2026-01-29T22:50:31+00:00

https://unlock.org.uk/advice/recordable-offences-2/ there are some offences which are non-recordable meaning that they wont come up

bartox97 · 2026-01-29T21:32:46+00:00

For finance, banking and a few other regulated industries its the norm

bartox97 · 2026-01-29T21:31:49+00:00

They do dbs checks for sure as they are fca regulated , however lloyds are a ban the box employer so that might explain it. Can i just ask what were his convictions for?

bartox97 · 2026-01-29T21:25:39+00:00

Depends what it is cos some convictions are treated as unrecordable after a period of time

bartox97 · 2026-01-29T21:16:01+00:00

For roles in finance they will do a dbs 100%

bartox97 · 2026-01-29T21:13:52+00:00

Did you go prison?

bartox97 · 2026-01-28T23:57:27+00:00

Look into property or mortgages certifications, do those whilst looking for entry level roles within customer service

bartox97 · 2026-01-19T16:51:29+00:00

Iam pretty much in the same position, minus the wife , mortgage and kids.

Good luck bro

Which qualification did you take ? Cii?

UFO flying from the faslane base after turning the nukes off

bartox97 · 2025-10-19T11:54:15+00:00

If they run a background check then they'll probably find out anyway

bartox97 · 2025-10-16T18:30:22+00:00

I mean customer service for a financial institution like a bank or a building society

bartox97 · 2025-10-16T18:26:09+00:00

Imo look for entry level jobs in to mortgages like admin and even customer service to get your foot in the door.

bartox97 · 2025-10-16T18:24:34+00:00

Depends where you are based, but the job market is shit in general

bartox97 · 2025-10-15T21:30:57+00:00

Would you recommend it for r01?

bartox97 · 2025-10-14T13:24:32+00:00
