Any news darren111?

Sorry for the late reply. I did the group bourdon dots test, in role play I had to sort out the correct ticket to sell and sort out a problem the passenger had. The questions were sort of what would you do if this happened ie passenger with feet up on seats. As for tips, no one was more...

Wonder if they will still recognise it even though I didn't pass managers interview.

So at what point Did you apply for Northern and how long were you on hold with ftpe

Hi I've taken and passed the telephone interview and assessment day for FTPE but unfortunately didn't make it past managers interview. What I'd like to know is will other train operators ie Northern Rail acknowledge how far I have got with FTPE? I've also been informed that a pass mark from...

The RATT test is a paragraph of information and you have to say which of Four questions correctly relates to the information

Cheers for the heads up about the motivation question Dunford bridge. He asked me 3 questions and for the life of me cannot remember the first. The second was about giving excellent customer service and the third was about how ive influenced someone. Difficult but I think I did ok. I had...

Northern rail mate

How you've gained the co operation of and given instruction to a colleague or third party in order to solve a problem at a time of disruption. And How you've handled a situation involving disagreement or conflict.

I'm a bit worried about this interview because I can't actually think of an answer for a couple of the above questions and I don't want to lie and make up an answer
