Registering & applications
I haven't been called for a job
We do get quite a large footfall of people registering with us, so we do recommend that you try and keep in touch with us as much as you can whether by calling us, emailing or even popping into the office; you are always welcome. You can also see our latest jobs on our website, if anything catches your eye and you have the experience to match this job, give us a call. You will receive emails with job alerts or text messages also.
How can I arrange an appointment to register?
At Top Job we understand that sometimes you cannot make the time to commit to appointments so we offer a walk in service, all you have to do is pop in to our office on between Monday and Thursday 9am – 4pm Monday – Thursday or 9am-1pm Friday with a few documents. You will find a list of documents required on our registration page
We are very proud to say we now have an online registration form you can complete prior to coming however, before finding you work we still need to meet with you to complete a brief face to face interview and to see some documents.
Do I need to dress smart to register?
We appreciate that we are based in the town centre so you may pop in to register in between shopping or going for lunch so you do not have to dress formal to an interview but always remember you never get second chance to make a first impression and please don’t come in if you have recently visited a local pub. We would love you to remember us the next day.
I want to register but I cannot find a baby sitter
Well-behaved children are welcome to join you whilst you register but we do understand this may be a little boring for them so you may want to bring some toys to keep them occupied.
How do I know what jobs are available to me?
Our website is always updated with latest jobs. You will also receive job alerts by email or text we try our best to keep job alerts relevant to your skills however some jobs do cross over so should you see something you are not interested please ignore that job alert.
Protecting your identity when looking for work
When applying for work it is common to be asked for personal information. This is true either when applying direct to companies or when using a recruitment firm such as an agency or online platform.
Top Job Recruitment will need to confirm your identity and right to work status, as well as your bank details in order to pay you. You do not need to supply bank details until you are offered a position but you are welcome to add them to your form a head of time to save yourself time. You bank details and documents will be stored on a secured password protected CRM system which can only be accessed by Top Job Recruitment employees.
Top Job Recruitment have a legal obligation to check your identity and confirm your right to work, even before you have a job offer. This is most certainly the case with temporary workers.
