They have recently changed the process since GTS took over - I have a family friend who currently works for the EL - they have shown me the application form on their internal app - internal applicants need to apply using their GTS email address, they cannot apply with their personal email address anymore.

Yeah was a given, once the womeninrail.org was given the external link it was a matter of waiting for internal numbers to not pick up and then it would be externally added.
Many internals are now on a 1year lock out from the role due to not passing OPC.

Could you dm me a bulletin. Only asking g because all I heard was the bulletin talking about the deal and that theres been a meeting but nothing yet agreed?
I would need to ask the person to send it to me but the new deal has been accepted and the new salary is 78301 and they’ve added the electric car scheme to the deal aswell

Yep it's got its numbers up, unsurprisingly. Many live in the catchment areas and more so there hasn't been a trainee recruitment campaign for years.
They closed the advert
I have applied before they closed it
Its open again and good luck with your application
Depends but 90% you will be rejected. They measure by public transport commute time not car.

Received SJT and preference questions from The OPC for this role! Exciting.
Congratulations! Did you just receive it now? I haven't gotten anything.

Mmhmm, this afternoon. I was out at the vets, so a nice surprise to get home to.
I am sure things are filtering out slowly. Railway recruitment is glacial in speed at the best of times!
I went through previous internal only campaign with GTS a few months ago. GTS are lightning quick compared to other TOCs, with each stage 2-3 weeks apart.

That is amazing to hear. I hope they continue to be the gold star with response times!
Good luck with the process! At the moment it’s for a January 2026 start date.
I’ve applied for a trainee driver role with GTS out of Old Oak Common, is this the same as Elizabeth line?
I’ve been referred to the OPC as I’d recently passed everything with GWR and not heard back from them, I believe I need to pass at enhanced standard and there’s some modules I haven’t reached the enhanced level.
My question is if I fail (don’t reach the enhanced level) would this affect my ‘fail score’ with the assessment process even though I’ve passed at standard level already?
Many thanks
