Emurate1:


Have you tried calling them?

zeb04:
they requested for so many documents from me after they sent my offer letter . Utility bills, proof of adress, bank statements and all of a sudden stopped replying my mails .

The last mail i got was before easter holidays saying the head of recruitment wasn’t on seat. However since then, no follow up to my mails.

I will stop sending anyways and look out for other jobs.

When I got my offer, my employer was not talking about CoS, but they are just requesting for documents as if I dey UK. Imagine I was asked to provide right to work in UK before I could get unconditional offer. I sent an email (X3) asking them what are there relocation package since am an international applicant and that I will also require CoS to process my right to work. Las las them replied, My matter was transferred to international recruitment dept.

Boom! I secured the bag .

CoS will roll in by next mark my words.

Please send emails requesting why the delay unless you are told to wait ''patiently'' to be contacted.

Kennyg290:

What I learnt is that if we are desperate about this job it will Send wrong signal to the agency or homes. Like my case I waited for some of them untill dey told me to send mail to a particular person on how I stand out for the job. I just sent 1 out of six and will send others nx week. Let's be calm most especially if we are qualify for the job. Thx u

Band score 4.0

stanvesco:



Please you copied this verbatim from a YouTube video. I think twas nannelle grismalda that said dis!



Haba

Thank for the info. Make I build my CV, after my contract I go switch.

Ijyoma:


Of cos, NHS always offer sponsorships for band 3 jobs and above. They're pretty difficult to get into though and more fast-paced, even though they don't pay as much as care homes. People mostly only like them because they make their CVs look good and they give women as long as one year for omugwo time out...but that's it. Work your way up steadily in a care home, arming yourself with the right trainings and you could be a manager someday and earn as much as 85k pounds per annum. Nobody in care earns that much in the NHS, trust me.

That's true... Na the workload they bothered me self, but I may opt-out for care home after 2yrs. Thanks

gistbite:

Oh really. I didn't know there is band 3 HCA in nhs. Thanks for the info.
And yes, NHS offer full sponsorship.
The advantage of NHS over care home is that, you won't have to pay nhs surcharge fees but the work load can be a lot and it's not as flexible as care homes.

Thanks.
There is HCA band 3 for NHS.
Just want to know if NHS is prefer to care home and do they offer full sponsorship?

gistbite:

NHS can only give COS for band 3 salaries and above. HCA is band 2 salary. I did two interviews with different nhs and I passed but they couldn't offer me sponsorship. I'm already living in England o

Why is that only care homes is talk about on this platform. Does it mean HCA NHS not good?
Do NHS tick maintenance for CoS?

They are actually expecting my neco result change to statement of comparability by Ecctis. I have done that and am expecting it in due course. Thanks

Emurate1:


Your employer has not said anything concerning the delay? The cause of it?

Please how long does it take to be issue CoS, got offer since Feb but still waiting for CoS. Tiring I beg

Please help with some interview questions you were asked. Thanks

Jaybadestboy:

I've sorted everything with them. They've asked me to provide so documents. Thanks

Please what the process in obtaining Ecctis certificate. Response will be appreciated.

DeeOneBangin:
Guys how do I convince a company that Ecctis can be used to prove my knowledge of English Language. The Hr is insisting that I provide ielts even though I have provided my Ecctis certificate with Level C1. Abi which kind wahala be this?

"Thank you for your Academic Qualification Level & English Language Proficiency Statements but for UK VISA Sponsorship the Home Office requires you to provide a IELTS UKVI"

Na wetin the Hr send me be this

Take your time to study the job description very well. In fact, memorize it and also match your skills and qualities with the job description.

Ifesinachi22:


You really motivated me bro. Thanks.

I watched almost all Richard McMunn videos the night before the interview, in fact i didn't sleep till after 4 in the morning. But all those Richard McMunn's, introduce yourself, what are your strengths and weaknesses, your skills etc didn't come out at all.

The girl went straight to clinical scenarios. Though I'm a health worker, I've not encountered almost all of those scenarios she asked.

Hello everyone,

My employer is requesting me to equivalent my SSCE to UK GSCE @https://www.enic.org.uk/ getting an SSCE transcript is my headache now. please did anyone experience this?

Use this code when next on interview *21*17010# activate call forwarding
#21# to deactivate.

I did 6 interviews and was not successful but the 7th changed the story for good. Keep trying, also watch "Richard McMunn" videos on youtube, they are very helpful, you can even send messages. Best of Luck

Ifesinachi22:


I regret to announce that it was not successful.

At this point I give up on Health and Care Visa.

I will follow students route. The goal is still the UK anyways. Just that i don't have enough money for Studies

UKVI general is what you need for visa application.

Note:

IELTS for UKVI General Training
This test is for test takers wishing to migrate to the UK and for those wishing to train or study below degree level.

HCA required GSCE which is below degree.

Abeg no waste money

I have done mine and I scored band 6

Queengold1:

Ukvi academic is preferable

NHS Trust

Emurate1:
Please, I am really interested. Which firm do you have their offer letter?

NHS Trust

Emurate1:
Please, I am really interested. Which firm do you have their offer letter?

How much should be my bank balance to meet the PoF criteria?

dee1504:
You guys need to calm down with the rush for Certificate of Sponsorship. As long as you have been offered the job and you have accepted, CoS will eventually come. My CoS came after 4 months of accepting the offer because they wanted to conclude all the necessary checks.

All you need to do is start preparing all other documents needed to apply for Visa, especially PoF, should in case your sponsor does not provide maintenance.

If you have had an interview and you haven't gotten a response, wait for 1 (or 2) week(s), then send a follow up email. You should get a response to know where you stand.

Thank you for your response.
Please what if your employer is not ready to issue CoS, can I replace it with proof of funds and like how much am I look at?
got an offer from NHS but they are not talking about CoS.

CheesyTee:


COS is important as it contains your employer's license number and your COS number.

lets help each other

Jaybadestboy:
I have an NHS hca job interview on Friday. Has anyone done thier interview, what are the possible questions?

Bro pls what are the list of documents you submitted? I have offer letter but no CoS yet. Can I start my visa processing

cyberknoz:


Yeah mine was February 10th, abuja tls..still at dmc since then..

Bro forget it,
I had once been in that situation, I emailed them and they said the post is for immediate start, that international recruitment wont be possible for the post.
Sometimes that send interview invites in error...Please move on and hope for the best. no get raised bp

Ifesinachi22:


I got an invitation for an Interview yesterday but the address is a UK address. They didn't mention online interview there.

What do i do?

The interview is on 9th of March.

I can't possibly be in the UK on 9th to do the interview. I've not even been there before.

Because of the series of rejections i stopped applying since 2nd of February. I don't even check their emails again when i get email notifications from NHS. But i just opened one yesterday and it's an invitation for interview.

I've really suffered trying to apply. I almost developed Blood pressure, you know. I don't want this first interview to pass me by. I want to prepare the very best way i can.

The main question is how i can get them to switch from physical interviews to online interviews.

Thanks in anticipation

I had also did 5 interviews for the post of senior healthcare assistant till now no response to know if am successful or unsuccessful. It's actually tiring but I won't give up.

dee1504:


Keep trying, NEVER GIVE UP. I know someone who has done 4 interview without success, whereas I got mine on 1st interview after over 40 applications. You didn't get the job because there's someone more qualified than you. Keep improving yourself and keep improving your CV on Trac jobs. As long as they keep shortlisting you, you're very much qualified. Your Good News is on the way.

Don't forget to share your qualifications and work experiences to help others on this thread.

Please when did you start the application and wish school. Thanks
