Re: Kelly's BT Openreach Engineers

Hello all ,

I have been working for Kelly's for a few months now and can tell you its a joke . However the good news is i have gone through the first stages of the BT OR interview process ie: sent cv ,had a phone call ,sent the online test and invited for an interview.Had the interview and have been told would hear in up to 4 weeks.Being inpatient {or just desperate to get away from Kellys}emailed BT got reply saying that i had met the the standard they were looking for and they would be checking all the paperwork to see which role i would be suitable for.Has anyone else been through this recently and what happens next and do i actually have a new job lol

Re: Kelly's BT Openreach Engineers

I have question , it seems to me that these contractors they hire on the in house , but paid as a sub, is it possible that you set up your own company ,LLC etc and pay your own business insurance etc. and get hired as a real subcontractor and pay your own taxes.Thanks

Well I'd say it sounds good for you. BT have just announced they're taking on another 500 engineers this year. That's in addition to the 2000 odd they've already taken on this year. At this rate they won't need Kelly's soon so I hope you do get in.
