Done my stage 1 assessment today. Was intense but the studying definitely helped. Saw a handful of people get turned away as they didn’t bring 2 utility bills as proof of address

The bright side, is you have the experience now and you will be able to know what to do for next time.

Has everyone thats in for the February course received and finished all their onboarding stuff?
I'm down for the April course as long as I pass the medical and background checks etc just waiting for recruitment to start sending it all over. Trying to get an idea if they are still finishing off the onboarding process for the Feb course.

Yes it’s almost all complete now. Just some final bits and pieces to do on induction day I believe.
Good luck with everything mate
Thank you. I was meant to get it all through last week so thought maybe they still busy getting the February lot sorted. Received it all today though, was your medical in Fleet Street medical centre?Hi mate,

Not sure why but can’t seem to reply to your message.
Go to the one that has the 107 above the door. That’s the right one and reception on first floor. I’d leave about 2 to 2.5hrs for the whole process there. Good luck!
How long did it take you to hear back from your medical and did you follow up with anyone in the meantime?
You don’t really hear back about your medical unless further tests/checks are required. The technician normally tells you at the end of the examination if everything’s within limits. And hence no follow up with anyone. Good luck mate.Hey man, happy to hear everything’s gone through smoothly.

Can anyone advise?
For a trainee driver, how long does it take to get to full salary? Does it go up in yearly increments? Or is is full whack as soon as you pass out?
