What is the job situation at Corus?

Dear Sirs

 

On the front page of this weeks edition, it is stated that there are 90 new jobs and 14 new apprentices are needed.

I have spoken to a chap at Metskill and also to a Mr. Goddard at Stocksbridge and was told these jobs do not exist. They have already been taken and the apprenticeships have already been filled earlier this year.

I was told by Metskill that the press release was a mistake and that someone was going to have to apologise for giving false information..

Perhaps you would be good enough to investigate this story and shed some light on who and what is the right information.

I spoke to both Mr.Goddard and Metskill. Metskill were very accommodating, but knew nothing about the vacancies.

The chap there rang me back later in the afternoon to confirm that the vacancies do not exist. I think we deserve the right information

 

Yours sincerely,

Paul Evans,

Wharncliffe side

 

Corus statement

 

Look Local forwarded the email from Paul to Corus and we were given the following statement.

 

We have been almost overwhelmed with the demand for the vacancies publicised last week. In just three days, we received more than 500 inquiries or applications.

We are still keen to hear from people interested in the manufacturing roles via our agency Spring Personnel on 0114 273 0075 or via email at corus@spring.com.

When we publicised the vacancies last week, the recruitment process for apprentices was still ongoing. That process has now been completed.
