Concerned with Interview

[truffles 2]

I am currenlty in process of dealing with packet 3 - for me it is a nightmare....I am divorced - my exhusband was in Royal Airforce which means we travelled abroad twice and several differnt places all over the UK - i have my police certificate however - getting conflicting advice about the need for one for the overseas postings? do i still need them or not ( will they be covered with UK police cert)

The other bind is the requirement to list every place i have lived and dates . frankly i cannot remember each of them other than roughly - can remember and work out the years but getting more acurrate that that is going to be hit and miss.....is this going to be issue? ( this is 17 years of postings!)

I also wonder if the extensive amount of moves will be cause for concern at the interview for the interviewer?

I am prone to worrying about things - so i apologise for my curent bout of paranoia

The different places in the UK will be covered by the police cert if you listed them when you sent it off.. as for the postings abroad you will need a cert from that country if you resided there for longer than 12 months..

I wouldn't be worried about moving a lot since it was due to your ex-husband's job.

Good luck!

You do not have to remember every address you have lived at...only every town you have lived in. If you read the form, it only asks you for the town, not the whole address. I had only lived in one town my whole life, although I had moved house several times, but all I put was the name of the town...and where it asks for the dates I put the date I turned 16 until the present day.

So, that should make it a whole lot easier to remember.

PS...My home town is Hull too!!!
