Hello Gurus in the house. Thank you all for your wonderful contributions to this group and your contributions have been so helpful. But I need clarification for a dilemma I am in.
So I got in to UK November and got a band 4 position in NHS herein London that include inner London high wages. There checks were concluded just last week, received unconditional offer and I have email the HR about my starting date and my words, and she replied that I have been schedule for an induction and appointment contract will be sent by next week. However, yesterday I got a better offer in Band 5 in an interview I did early this month with higher pay and nearer to my house....
But I already gave out my words to the HR of the formal offer work, with all arrangement for inductions now in place.

What can I do ?

If someone has the international drivers license valid for 1 year, to get a UK license after that do you need to start with getting a provisional license?

Rubyventures:


There are certain situations where you have to look out for yourself and i think this is one of them. Just call the the first employer and be honest with them so they can have it on record. Don't leave it to until the last minute. These employers always choose about three final applicants, just incase their first or second choice disappoints.

Mamatukwas:


What she said but make sure you lock down the new Band 5 position before informing the other people.

Good evening guys.

Has anyone here ever done Certificate & English proficiency verification via ECCTIS? ( Formerly NARIC)

How is the transcript submitted to them? From what I see on their website, it appears the candidate has to have a copy of the transcript...and I know this is unlikely for Nigerian schools....
Anyone know anything about this?

HR will be fine . I normally don't even think twice. ... confirm your band 5 , ensure it is secure and give band 4 a call. Las las everyone will be ok. You take care of you first

Since you are using the word band , I guess both are NHS jobs, maybe the referencing will be quicker since you gone through similar within NHS. Be open to both parties once you said yes to band 5 and take it from there. Band 4 will understand, inconvenient yes but u won't be the first or last to do this

Gloriouscrown:


Hello LagosismyHome, please is reception class the same free 15hourly per week or more? I am trying to schedule my work around my daughter's school hours and I just want to confirm. Thank you

LagosismyHome:


No .....a year younger

Age 3 to when you turn 4 is the free 15 hours. The next class after 4 years old is Reception which is the first class in primary school. Reception would be around 9 to 3pm

One of my concerns. band 5 just gave me a call after interview that I got the job. By the time they are done with their checks, my induction and resumption date for band4 would have passed. This band 4 took 4 weeks before checks were completed. DBS, OT and references check.

LagosismyHome:


Please where did you get study materials for this exam. I can't see to find much on Google

omopapa:
1. Open a high street bank account (Barclays, Lloyds, HSBC, NatWest)

2. Apply to vote to be added on the electoral roll (Nigerians are allowed to register and vote in the UK as commonwealth citizens)

3. Open a credit file by applying for sim only contract from EE, 3, Vodafone

4. Apply and maintain a good credit card (capital one or your bank account)

5. Check your credit report for free with clearscore, Experian, credit karma, equifax

Bluetherapy:

Register to vote. This carries a lot of points.

Santa2:
@Amazoner01..Register to vote, get a sim only contract from a phone company. Also you can get a purchase credit card(those low or zero interest credit card), use it for your purchases, be disciplined enough refund purchases. Monesavingexpert is a good resource for personal finance literacy. Also I learnt setting up direct debit for bills is another good way.
