How hard is it to gain employment here in Cardiff UK?

[myliitlehaven07]

Hello guys, its been so long since i last posted here and i really miss this forum! and am so way happy now that i get to read the many post here especially the celebration part!

anyways, i need some sort of an idea how difficult it is to gain employment in UK? As soon as i arrived in UK last month ( one month mark today hahaha) i started submitting my CV online, and after a few weeks then an agency for BRITISH GAS has called me and i passed the phone interview and got me scheduled for the one on one interview in their office, i told them i dont have the National insurance number yet and the bank account bec i just arrived in UK. It surprised me that they gave me two months to secure my national insurance number and told me to contact them once i have them. Is this normal that they give you this CHANCE and give you some time to secure your documents?

and yesterday i got my national insurance number and the bank account and id like to get contact them and telll them am ready with all my documents that they need but am quite hesitant now :((

Good news. Get back to them straight away. He who hesitates has lost, as they say.
