I Am Getting The Cold Shoulder

This is frustrating, why not to get the phone and call her?

I would be annoyed too. After a week, an email and a WhatsApp message, the least she could do is acknowledge you, even if she is too busy to deal with it immediately. Considering this is holding up a possible job opportunity, ignoring you altogether feels very inconsiderate and unprofessional. I hope there is someone else at the company you can contact so you are not left depending on her response.

I hope you can just call her to make sure you just get a straight answer from her.

Shouldn't that be something each employer does before you start a new job. That's the way it works in the US.

This must be so frustrating. I wonder why she won't reply. Can you get in touch by phoning?

Just put a call through to her ..she needs to know how urgent it is

I don’t understand why your prospective employer is asking for a DBS check from your previous employer? Surely you have the official copy not them? And this is also something they can check online with your permission. Are you signed up to the DBS Update Service?

I think you should call her

That is frustrating and since you need the job I suggest you call her directly and see how that goes,

Hope the new job comes through and that you can get in touch with your previous employer,

This is something which not like me too. They do it because they not want you move somewhere else. Everywhere they are same as we leave they behave sudden like they don't know us or we did something wrong. Hope you get it early.

It is unprofessional not to respond at all. Times are hard everywhere now. I wish you luck too.

Hopefully she respond you soon

a week is really a maximum time, i feel, no matter how busy you are. i don't sometimes feel comfortable calling people so i would write another email but this time to a secretary perhaps (or to official email address of your previous workplace) and once again to this employer. i'm sorry for this treatment, it is really unfair. also, this dbs check, why is it connected to your previous employer. here, when we need it for a job, we contact ministry of police, then courts online and we get this paper in a day;all our criminal background. also, i hope a future employer will understand your situation and this troubles me, i hope a trial shift is paid there. here, for some jobs, they wanted me to do that but for me, it's exploiting thing and not sure it's legal but many go around the law. for me, every job should be paid from day 1 and training should also start from day 1. good luck, fingers crossed

It’s understandable to feel ignored when your efforts to connect with her don’t seem to go anywhere. Visiting her could help you find out if she’s actually ignoring you or if she’s just too busy to see or read your message. Seeing her in person might give you the clarity you need and help you get what you’re asking for.

I would try calling them directly

A.I can create those emails
