Ahh major setback encountered: Got a call from the dream job today to notify me that I am an extremely competitive applicant, therefore they need me to submit my victorian working with children check and send them the submission receipt before they can make a job offer.
The interstate process requires them to mail me the form, which I should receive on Tuesday. I will then mail it back to them Wednesday via express post. Once they receive it, they advise that I should receive the verified receipt within two weeks of my application being received by the unit. So the quickest way for me to get them a receipt is to wait until I move down as I will get a receipt on the spot. However, they want to make an offer by next Friday! and I definitely want to know earlier than I move down.
After I had a little freak-out I emailed my potential manager to be to let her know of the situation and she will be chatting with HR this afternoon and will let me know the advised course of action asap.
While it is a good sign that she is going to this effort for me, I am also worried about the implications of not having this paperwork to them earlier. Technically, we can live of Adam's pay for a little while, but things will be very tough, so I am really counting on this job offer. If this falls through I will be searching for retail work until something else comes up, but I'm really not keen on this bureaucratic setback/delay!Comment
