Checking/selling tickets :)

Yes overtime is always available so they said. HR mentioned it would be easier to progress internally so fingers crossed :)

Hi Andrew32. I'm in the talent pool for the conductors job at Leeds but i've just accepted a role with Northern. Gateline Operator. Starts at 16,500 and rises to 17,500 after 6 months. Overtime is also available.

Pay starts at 16,573 and then rises after 6 months to 17,531. So not quite what I would be earning has a conductor but hopefully this gives me a better chance of getting that role. Not to sure about the shifts but it's 35 hours a week!!

It was shapes, but just practice both tests. Northern have the option to offer both I believe. I'm sure you'll be fine!! Unfortunately not. I have been placed in the talent pool due to the number of successful candidates. I was a little disappointed. They offered me a position with them...

aw123 I was also extremely worried, even after I sat the assessment I was worried. I passed. The best strategy is to keep calm, work at a reasonable pace, it looks better if you complete less questions and get them all right instead of rushing through and making mistakes. It's common sense...

Thanks Andrew32!! solus85 - Leeds mate :) Yourself? MrsSundayMorn - I can't confirm whether it will be or not. I prepared like mad for the dots and guess what? It wasn't the dots!! I think Northern have the choice of which to give you, SCATT or GBT.

Just received the dreaded Talent Pool email. It feels so dejecting. Hopefully something good will come from it. Good luck with your interview Andrew32 :)

Andrew32 They'll contact me within two weeks - same as solus85. Same here, I need to work a months notice so fingers crossed we hear off them soon.

Leeds mate and it says, 'On hold after Successful Conductor assessment' :)

I got news today that I passed the conductor assessment :') No job offered, 'reviewing recruitment plans' is what the email said!!
