You will then be contacted by our Resourcer who will discuss the type of role that you are looking for and identify any possible opportunities that we may have for you at the time.
At this stage the Resourcer will either book you in for an appointment to register with us if you are seeking temporary work or pass your details onto an experienced consultant with knowledge in your sector (this tends to be for permanent positions) who will then contact you for an in depth chat.
You must bring the following with you to your registration:
Passport (in date), Birth Certificate, Identity Card

It is your responsibility to have your hours signed off by your supervisor / manager and to return it back to APR on time (scan and email, fax, post)
If we receive your timesheet after this time, this may delay your pay until the following week's payroll as we need to confirm with the company the hours that you worked
