    A career as a signaller

    Just a quick one! I've been to 2 interviews now for a signaller and on both occasions, the interviewer doesn't seem convinced by my "communications" answer. They probed me both times. On the first occasion, I was told I did everything right apart from that one question about comms. Does anyone...

    Kneeon- may I ask how many questions were on the numeracy test and how long were you given? Also the same for the verbal reasoning? I've got to get mine done by Monday, so I am doing a few practice tests to get back into the swing of things!

    :) I like your last point buddy. However sometimes in life, there are issues that you simply cannot find common ground on. This is such an issue. It is so emotive, that people on both sides can become defensive. I am not sure I agree with your comparison with safety of signalling! With...

    But I already passed the tests- via the day assessment in London! I could have accepted it if I had failed just one application form stage, but 5!!! It really beggars belief and I have wasted my time and money going to the assessment day in London :(

    Just logged onto the recruitment portal and was shocked to see I have been rejected for 4 jobs in a row (and I didn't even have emails sent to me to confirm this)!!!
