How do I know if my application has been submitted incorrectly or incomplete?

The production team will use reasonable endeavours to contact any candidate via email if their application has been deemed to be incorrect or incomplete. The email will inform them about what area of their application is incorrect or incomplete. They may then give the opportunity to rectify this issue if appropriate.

Although every effort will be made to contact candidates whose applications fall into this category we are unable to guarantee that this will happen. Accordingly candidates must try to ensure that they apply correctly.

What should I do if my images aren't uploading?

If you're having trouble uploading images, please note the following points:

• The system only accepts jpg images.
• If you have another type of image, Microsoft paint and other image tools can generally resave the file as a .jpg
• So please convert all images to jpg.
• The images must be under 5mb in size.
• To find out the size of your picture, right click on the file and select properties.
• If your picture is too big you must resize it - if you need help with resizing your picture there are numerous tools online if you search for "resize photo"
• Finally if you are still having difficulty please contact us and we will endeavour to help you out [email protected]
