Haha. It always helps when you have a holiday booked up. Cheers, here's hoping it does come quicker. What stage are you at? You waiting for a start or you already a driver?Hopefully it is quicker for you. The wait is never nice
I had a holiday in the waiting period so that took my mind off it.
That doesn’t surprise me at all.
Is that the one you do 50 questions? How many did you get through mate?
Yup correct.
I think I only did about 30. But once I got the hang of it, it was pretty straight forward. I kept double checking to see I did it right. Might have cost me. Hope not haha.
If like others. Be more accuracy than anything. Now just the sit and wait game sadly.
I will assume you don't do the 50 questions also !!!!..... That was nuts lol. That was miles harder than anything I've done with Scotrail. I will wait and see what the result is, but I have a feeling I will be becoming a ScotRail Driver lol
How many did you manage to get done roughly?
25 if that, well done to that guy who almost completed it. must be like rain man lol
Reckon you'll be fine, so long as you didn't make any mistakes. It's not a speed race. It's how you preform under pressure is my take. Again, I'm no expert. But the logic to me says if you take your time, get all correct. Compared to nearly finishing all questions but getting a few wrong, as a train driver, they'd prefer the former rather than the latter. Just my opinion
Time will tell, but I would be happy to accept your vote of confidence lol. I have to admit that it took me by surprise.
Also got 30/31 I think - 40 is good going! 15 seconds per question is rapid
Did you get an email AFTER you did the error checking test? Saying it was under review with the hiring manager?
Haha. It is indeed. I was cautious and checked and double checked. Definitely cost me time. But I'm confident the ones I did do was all correct. You waiting for more tests or you waiting for a course mate?
Yeah I got an email as soon as the test finished.
Same here. I've been reading the forums, a lot of people say if the hiring manager is reviewing your application after the concentration test, it's a good sign as not everyone gets it. Apparently.
Yeah I believe everyone who gets that email is through to testing. I've applied twice and received that email both times to progress
Thanks for giving us an insight into your experience. You waiting for a start date?
Similiar to Scotrail I would think? Have you done the assessments with Scotrail?
That's quite shocking actually, especially if they made you do a medical. I've applied for the talent pool at Yoker and Airdrie for Scotrail and now this one. I've got a lot of practice material for the main assessments like the dot test etc. I know it's going to be a long process. Just hoping I get something as it's a job I do really want. Haha
Fair enough. You may have got quite a few wrong in the first test. I'm confident I got the ones I finished I got correct, as I double checked, hence why I didn't get more within the time frame.
Maybe, or maybe I got every single one correct and spent too long double checking each answer. There's no way to know really... Either way I'm just stating that I had the email on that occasion too.
We will never know. But I'm assuming that if you get the email that your application is under review from the hiring manager. You've at least passed the assessments. I agree, you'll be sifted through by the hiring manager to see if you're suitable or not. Good luck to you anyways.
I’m in the same situation. Passed all Scotrail assessments by Dec 2025, told they will be in contact when course dates have been finalised. 3 weeks ago received email (along with pretty much everyone who had passed) to say in talent bank.
I am the same with regards TPE - I haven’t had the next email inviting me to the 15 minutes testing thing others have mentioned. Completed the AI interview and that was that. I did see they have closed the advert early so could it be they are only progressing those who applied earlier?
I put my application in on Saturday, then I didn't complete the AI test till Monday. I got my email about the 15min test on Tuesday and sat that test last night. Immediately after finishing the test, I got an email saying it's with the hiring manager and give them some time to decide if I make the short list.
Think as long as you applied you’ll still be considered. When did you sit the AI interview?
Yesterday, about 10am. Then got an email with personality profile. I’ve not had the one saying I’ve to sit anything else.
Hopefully we’ll get that at some point today
