Just thought I would post that having an iva is not the end of the world in reference to job applications. Since being in an iva I hate the bit on job applications about your credit history. I completed the application form honestly about my debt and at the interview I explained I was in an iva. I was worried this would go against my application and nearly did not bother as the company is a law firm however they called and offered me the job[:D] so just to show honesty is the best policy and some companies do look favorable at iva's when recruiting.

I was credit checked for my old job...but it was part of the security clearance, I don't think they cared if I had bad credit as long as my employer was aware of it,meaning I couldn't be blackmailed over it into releasing national security information.
I applied to a company before, just a basic admin job and they would not take anyone on who had even missed a mortgage payment [:0] bet in the current climate they did not have many applications. Thanks for all the lovely congratulation messages everyone.
