Hi Loopy,
Its lovely to "e-meet" you. 😊
I'm just in the process of confirming a few things with the recruitment team (hoping they respond soon) and will then be in a position to sign my contract and send it back and then get the ball rolling on my security checks.
Have they said anything about your medical? Do u think you will have to go to a BUPA or Nuffield clinic?

Nice to meet you to 😊
No not yet as the background checks seem to be quite extensive to say the least! I believe this is the most tedious part of the application… I was however informed that the medical would take place in London as that’s the only place they do them. I’m so surprised they have told you already where you will be based, I got told it would probably be Dhahran but could change. Have you been waiting long?x

Folks, I am also in the process of joining but I will be based in RT. background checks ongoing. I have been given an option to either do medical in the country I am living in right now or in London. Looks like in London, embassy turnaround is only 2 days and looks more promising.

I accepted the offer early in December and have my visa medical booked for next week in London. |

loopy, they sent through my initial offer Wednesday just past (initial app back in Aug 2022, F2F Interview Dec 2022), so the process seems to be in line with everyone else. I haven't signed my contract just yet as waiting for a few things to be clarified, I'm hoping they respond soon.

jsam lovely to "e-meet" you 😊. I'm based down in Brighton, so looks like I would be coming to London for the medical too. Good news that the Visa process only takes 2 days, thats quite surprising.

On family status? if yes, planning to take family with you? |

When are you expecting to travel to RT? I'll be following you after couple of months i guess. On family status? if yes, planning to take family with you? Should be relocating some time in May provided medical is passed and visa accepted. I will be on family status, but as per the process will be travelling alone at first in order to sort family visa when in RT. Family should only be a couple of months behind me then hopefully! |

Yes I had my F2F interview in December too, just hoping the checks go smoothly and quickly but I guess everyone’s situation is different with the checks, keep me posted how you get on x |
