Sorry to hear about this. I was on this assessment centre too. Not heard anything yet, keeping me on my toes

I sat my assessment on Tuesday 31st, found out I had been successful a week later and invited to DMI this week.

Anyone heard anything for Glasgow?
The last I'd received was that the application is with the hiring manager for review but that was about a month ago. Had nothing since.

Yeah I’m the same, nothing since 21st March saying it was with hiring manager. Suppose it’s only been 3 weeks, so still plenty of time

Just today found out I've been successful at Stage 2!
Just waiting for dates for DMI before I can continue
How did your DMI go? Was it similar to the MMI?
BlueMike26

It was very different tbh. I prepared as well as I was able for it and it went pretty well I think. I came out feeling positive, the Driver Managers I interviewed with were really nice guys and put me at ease. Awaiting a medical now.

Sounds promising for you! Good luck
Did you get the usual guidance of what to expect on the email invitation?
Did they say you passed the interview?
Did they give you a course date and when you would expect to have a medical?

Just awaiting a medical having passed the interview. Then a course date to follow.

Not really anything in the email explaining what to expect, no.
Congratulations that is great news.

I had the email last week to book on to the second stage.
The first stage is only a half day. The second stay I’ve had to book a full day
Ok, thanks for info.

Yes 1st stage is a 1/2 day. This is all the paper exercises
2nd stage is a full day, this is the computer tests, if you pass these, you go to the SJE and MMI on the same day
Thanks for info.

Had my DMI date come through, but noticed it says to upload a picture of yourself on the interview page so they know who to look out for.
I've only by chance come across this, have people done this?
Does anyone have any tips or advice what happens at DMI, as there's no guidance with this, like the rest of the process?
