I never got asked for my passport or drivers licence since I provided it at my interview. I wonder what happens if we hadn't received contract before we went to our induction? Also is everyones training in Harrogate or are we going to different training facilities?

Re: Kelly's BT Openreach Engineers
 
I'm doing bb omi too tre, when I had the first phone call they asked me where I would prefer training and they mentioned Harrogate but when they rang me they just said induction in yarnfield and training in yarnfield too. So must be all yarnfield the induction is Apparantly for a week and then training for 5! They seen my passport at interview stage also but I sent the document numbers off again on Friday..

Re: Kelly's BT Openreach Engineers
 
From what I can gather from it the one man installers will be working in people's houses so needed security checks or crb checks and roll they gave me overhead is out of house so no more checks needed hence me being sent to harrogate which I checked out and seems mostly focused on telegraph pole training from what ive seen. Yarnfield would of been cool more or less local compared to harrogate but got to be done lol

Hope I get the offer of a train to Harrogate haha

You'll be in a nice hotel in Harrogate with everything paid for, enjoy! I actually prefer the facilities there to Yarnfield also. They will pay for your chosen means of travel, don't worry about that.

Hello fellas, Just wondering how long it took for the email with the interview results to come through? Had my final interview week before last and felt it went really well have lots of fibre and ethernet experience.

Tying myself in knots lol waiting for the email to drop in with a yes or nope lol i guess bank holiday will slow things up a little bit

Re: Kelly's BT Openreach Engineers
