Pushto and toro01,
I too sent an application online a month ago. When not receiving confirmation that VS had received it, I called Janine Taylor at recruitment, and was told that this is normal procedure. Not to worry, she said, your CV is here . And so should yours be.
As things stand, VS won´t start calling people in for interview until after New Year.
Hang in there.
Cheers, Zico
