Post BA confirmation letters

Quick question:

How long after phoneing the nice lady at BA to arrange a date for apptitude tests does the confirmation letter take to come through? I am beginning to suspect next door's dog ate mine.

Cheers in advance.

First time I went the letter never came, so I had to phone and get them to fax it to me. Try this if it's close to your time to going.

I did wonder at the time whehter it was some sort of test to see what you would do, but they would do that, would they?

It doesn't have anything to do with when you arranged the aptitudes date, but when the date actually is. The letter should arrive about a week before the arranged date,

Question

BreakRight, how long were you waiting from the time you sent in your application form to the time you got called to attend apptitudes? I sent mine off about 5 weeks ago. Got a letter saying they had received it, but still waiting for the call to apptitudes.

I sent in my form around christmas, but I dont know when they got it (slow post holidays etc), I probably got my 'we have recieved' letter around the 8th of Jan and my 'phone us up for test date' letter is dated the 24th Jan, so very roughly a month. I would not worry about the 5 week wait, I was surprised how quickly mine came. BA will get back to you and the fact that it has been 5 weeks just means that you probably were not binned after reading the first page of your form. Dinnae worry.

You came in that thing! You`re braver than I thought.

Word of warning -

Don't worry about them trying to catch you out - They sent my confirmation letter about 2 weeks before the tests and even then, some of the info was missing. All in all I phoned them 4 times to clear up minor points. They were always very helpful, and it hasn't affected my application!
