WMT - Trainee Driver (Talent Pool) - Crewe (11/07/24)

[GPR]

Yes, as they emailed to say not apply for this process as my application is still live. I left it last minute to do the video interview, so guess they had already put enough through to next stage so didn't get to mine.

When I applied for Avanti I believe I had the same issue.
People I work with had done their SJT days before me and I’d had to do it the night before the deadline.
One now works for Avanti, two are in the talent pool, two failed the CBIs and two are awaiting DMIs.
I got through to the next stage to then get the ‘recruitment has now concluded’ email.

Have you emailed the HR team?

Hello everyone I hope you’re all well.

I am just wondering if there is anyone in here waiting to hear back from their video interviews. I have come across a post that someone has been offered a position lately.

Many thanks Rick

I had confirmation I passed the video interview but then didn't hear a thing and most other people progressed.

If you didn't hear anything it means more than likely it wasn't progressed.

 

[RickyH13]

Thanks for responding when did you do your video interview? I completed mine on Monday.

Mine was a long time ago, a different depot recruitment I think around April/May I think I can't remember maybe even earlier.

But same thing where I was waiting to be progressed and heard nothing so I figured I wasn't progressing.

Emails being sent out responding to video interviews.

Nobody has been offered a position from this recruitment.

Everyone should receive a response for this stage, whether successful or not. There is no rush on WMTs side as they will be setting up dates for paper testing

I'm still waiting to hear back from my video for the previous intake in Dec 2023. Has anyone already heard back from this campaign July 2024?

Yes many have. I know all internal applicants have

 

[Theoffs]

Would they notify you if you were unsuccessful?

 

[SCDR_WMR]

Yes, though clearly some have missed the email or it has gone into their junk folder etc.

 

[Woodyrs]

Is anybody else also waiting to hear back from the recent video interview ?

 

[RebeccaHW]

Hi all, my partner completed his video interview on Friday 26th July, just over 2 weeks ago. He hasn't heard back yet. Fingers crossed everyone hears back soon!

 

[gazgareth]

I found out today I got through the video interview. I did mine back in January on previous process though.

Congratulations! My partner got his email today too to say he was successful in the video interview.

 

[RickyH13]

Congratulations exciting times ahead good luck to everyone

Yes it must have. I didn’t get past the one way interview.
I tried to apply via a link sent to me thinking it was a new posting but I’ve tried applying and it says I have already applied for this vacancy.

Use new login details?

 

[gazgareth]

I've got the tests 29th August, anyone else at that stage yet?

 

[Adam76]

Use new login details?

i had a nightmare last time i applied and the video interview crashed as i was doing it. The recruitment team said there was nothing they can do

If i apply again with diff log in details would this be okay? would i have to change my previous application?

No idea, worth a try though

Yes My partner has booked his stage 1 assessments. Good luck Gareth!

 

[RickyH13]

Good luck to everyone on the 29th

I have gone through the practice materials. I really struggled with the memory one, where you read a passage for 3 minutes then answer the multiple choice questions about it.

Find a way which works for you. Some people turn that passage of text into bullet points, focusing on the key bits of information. Should take about a minute to skim and write.

Then study your much more consise notes for around 2 minutes. Put your notes out of reach and do the questions.

Did the assessment today, felt like it went OK, but so hard to tell!

Do they not tell you on the day if you have passed or not ? Fingers crossed for you.
