This would be a perfect job for me, nvq level 3 as a credited and approved parts advisor, ATA approved in customer handling, and knowledge of drifting due to owning my s14

If only I lived closer :(
 
We're just going through them now. There's quite a lot so you'll have to bear with us. We should start sending e-mails this afternoon / tomorrow.
 
I think there was just short of about 100 people who applied for this last time around, so we all just have to be a little patient and allow the guys to do their best and work through them as best they can.

I haven't had e email/call yet myself, but we all just have to sit tight with fingers crossed, and see what comes of it.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend.

Ciao.
 
Wow Roughsmoke with the major ass kissing, I'm sure that post will give you an advantage over the other applicants...
 
If you have applied yourself, then good luck!

Take it easy mate : )

[edit - I hate when you double type a word!]
