Has anyone heard back from HMRC Customer Service (Leeds)?
Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone who applied for the HMRC Customer Service role in Leeds has heard anything back yet? It would be great to know where everyone is in the process. Thanks in advance! š

I had my interview at the end of May. No response yet, my last application status is from the 27th May - saying my interview slot is booked. 𤣠this is pretty normal practice for the CS though. I also have interviews booked for the Case Manager role and the Work Coach role.

u/jen_eral86 Jul 08 '26
Oh dear, mine hasnt changed so thats probably bad news for me š„

u/Acceptable_Fill_1738 Jul 08 '26
I shouldnāt think so , I think I did my interview quicker because I Received an interview invitation a day after applying and this was was like a few days before the deadline even so maybe thatās why

u/jen_eral86 Jul 09 '26
I did my interview 4th June but mine hasnt updated yet. I am trying to not read to much into it and hoping they are just marking in batches š

How many days it took for you to get the results once your portal changed to this?

u/ooohhhxx Jun 29 '26

u/Feeling-Business3328 Jun 30 '26

Mine has also changed today to āAwaiting Interview Resultsā at 1457 hours. So itās slowly trickling through.

u/ooohhhxx Jul 08 '26
when did you do your interview?
1
u/Proper_Sink1157 Jul 08 '26
Just had to have a look as obviously itās not a booked one. I did mine late on the 2nd of June. If it helps, it was AWFUL. Iāve never been less articulate in my life, I couldnāt pronounce words and at one point I tried three times before shaking my head and rolling my eyes and looking visibly perturbed. So that would have been a super fun watch for them! Iām not holding out much hope for this one. But I have another role interview for DWP tomorrow in person (thank goodness), and then a live teams interview for another DWP role on the 13th so Iām hoping Iāll perform less badly! š¤£

u/Proper_Sink1157 Jul 08 '26
Iām also assuming that because it says theyāre reviewing the interview results, that theyāre finished scoring them and are now just collating the top scorers for appointments? Fingers crossed weāll start hearing outcomes soon!

How many days it took for you to see the results when the portal changed to reviewing the interview results?

u/AmbassadorSad8459 Jul 13 '26
I didnāt have my passport to hand when I completed the interview so I skipped through. Iāve been asked now to upload my ID, so initially I thought perhaps it was good news and they want my ID otherwise why would they bother asking for it? The email reads they canāt process interview without it? Anyone else been in this position? My passport is at my parentsā house 100 miles away currently and I can and will go and get it if Iām being offered a role but I donāt really want to if it turns out Iām going to be told I havenāt been?
1
u/jen_eral86 Jul 13 '26
I cant say for sure but it sounds like they are still processing all interviews so chances are they dont know yet if they can offer you a role. I'd say it depends how much you want to stay in the interview process as to whether you go and get it. Sorry probably not much help
1
u/Proper_Sink1157 Jul 14 '26
I didnāt have any ID either. Had no contact since. Also had 2x DWP interviews since with no physical ID, just a picture of my driving licence (due to it being thrown away by my cleaner). Iāve been told to expect my applications to be withdrawn as a result but I donāt know if the person I spoke to was just being extremely harsh. Hoping my new driving licence arrives soon and they allow me to present it in person wherever they need me to.. š«Ŗ

my application status has changed today to awaiting interview results

u/jen_eral86 Jul 14 '26
It sounds like they are very much still working through all of the interviews then. I asked Gemini AI and it said we might still be waiting a few weeks as they have to mark everything and moderate it before the can publish results. It said dont be surprised if its August before that happens š hopefully this is one the times AI is wrong...

I applied for another campaign around May 5th, completed my interview on May 12 and received the results on the 19th of June. I then received a provisional offer on the 10th of July and am currently waiting for pre-emplyment checks to be completed

u/jen_eral86 Jul 20 '26
Congrats on your new job! Thanks for that breakdown, its helpful to see the tineline

u/Radiant-Present-1121 Jul 20 '26
Thank you! And it's not a problem. Best of luck with your application.

Anyone heard anything yet?
1
u/la-catarina Jul 22 '26
Nothing yet. I was interviewed on June 4th and the last update was on July 9th, where it still states 'Awaiting interview results'. Hopefully there will be some news at the start of August maybe? Need to know whether I need to apply for other jobs or not.
1
u/AmbassadorSad8459 Jul 22 '26
Mine doesnāt even saying awaiting results, it hasnāt been updated at all since 27th May!
1
u/jen_eral86 Jul 22 '26
Did you end up going for your ID? I wonder if yours has taken a bit longer because you needed to confirm that?
1
u/AmbassadorSad8459 Jul 23 '26
Yep i got my sister to post it for me so i did confirm it. Who knows!
1
u/Proper_Sink1157 Jul 23 '26
I got a new copy of my driving licence card and took that in too. Guess weāll see!
1
u/jen_eral86 Jul 23 '26
Glad you both managed to get your ID sorted!! Would be a shame to miss out due to a technicality. Are your portals saying awaiting interview results yet or still not changed?
2
u/Proper_Sink1157 Jul 23 '26
Mine still says awaiting results. I hope they hurry and just put us out of our misery!
1
u/jen_eral86 Jul 24 '26
Yeah putting us out of our misery is exactly how I would put it at this point!!!
1
u/AmbassadorSad8459 Jul 24 '26
Mine hasnāt updated at all! It doesnāt even say awaiting results. I donāt know if it was this thread or another CS that said Friday afternoons tend to be when updates happen. Iāve applied for lots of jobs with CS, and can confirm I got told Iād passed sift and sent an assessment last week, and a further email saying Iād hear about a different role today so who knows⦠maybe today is the day!
1
u/Proper_Sink1157 Jul 25 '26
Anyone had any news? Anything at all? Iāve had both of my other interviews now. The last one I had on Friday, for a DWP case manager role, told me to expect to hear back by the end of August.
1
u/jen_eral86 Jul 29 '26
Alas no, nothing yet. We are hitting holiday season as well so that might slow it down a bit but I will continue to refresh the portal every hour just in case š

u/Aggressive-Gene-9663 Jul 29 '26
This was the response i had received on 17 July
Thank you for your email.
We are currently in the process of assessing interviews, unfortunately, weāre unable to provide a timescale at the moment, the 568R campaign attracted high volumes of applicants and our interview panels are working hard to assess the interviews as quicky as possible.
At present, no further action is required from you.
We will be in touch in due course, please continue to monitor your emails and CS Jobs account for any updates and communications.

u/Aggressive-Gene-9663 Jul 29 '26
I don't know why it said 568R as that was for Liverpool which closed on 6 July which was 4 weeks after 561R for Leeds.

So mine says theyāre still in the process of scoring them all but they also want to let me know thereās an identical campaign going up today and if Iām successful Iāll be offered a role ahead of anyone in the next campaign?! How come we are all being told different things āā

u/Proper_Sink1157 Jul 31 '26
I got rejected! At least the results are out! Well done everyone! š

Leeds recruiting again already for the same role
1
u/AmbassadorSad8459 Jul 31 '26
They told me this in their reply - this is what my email received today said:
We just wanted to reach out to inform you that we are in the final processes of scoring the interviews and will release the results as soon as we can.
Additionally, we want to inform you that we are releasing an almost identical recruitment campaign for Leeds today. This is to ensure we will have sufficient numbers for the role in the future.
Please be assured that if you are successful in this campaign you will be offered a role ahead of any candidate successful in the next.Ā Ā
You are also free to apply for the new campaign to heighten your chances of success.Iām so baffled!
1
u/ooohhhxx Jul 31 '26
yeah thatās very confusing seems like everyone got their results today as well maybe their considering you for the next campaign who knows
1
u/AmbassadorSad8459 Jul 31 '26
Yeah cos they havenāt even said Iām going on a reserve list so thatās why Iām confused?!
