Hello, Ah okay that's a relief, thought I'd already fallen! Ah okay, I didn't know it had been up that long thought Tuesday was the first day live. Anyway thanks for your quick reply. Good luck and may see you at test day.

I applied on Tuesday and completed the questionnaire. I was told I would hear something in 20 days. I've read on here others have already received links to tests. Does that mean I haven't passed the questionnaire? Thanks all!

Hi Dan, I've just checked my application and it says the same thing. I'd drop recruitment a email Monday morning and ask for an update on your application. Good luck

Thank you for the indepth reply!! It is very much appreciated and has given me a better picture of the process and the Junior Driver role! Are you a Driver for DB or another TOC/FOC? If successful this would be an amazing career opportunity for me. Something I would take full pride in...

Thanks for the reply Stigy. I assumed I would get a European Train Driving licence, wasn't 100% sure. Well I'm sure at Toton I would have to sit the rules course along with my local depot (Bescot) as the yard is on both sides of the mainline. Wonder what element of mainline work those two depots...

Ah okay fair enough. You know your stuff then in certain areas. I hope you get the chance to join the family one day! Thank you, hoping this is the time I take the next step up into the cab, literally!! Oh yes, it would put me in good stead like you say and would save the company time when I do...

That's just what I was thinking! I knew it was yard work with the Junior Driver role. I am already a Shunter so I have some idea into some part of the role. Are you already in the industry if you don't mind me asking? I would enjoy doing yard work anyway to get a good level of the handling of...

Really? I didn't think I would have to sit them all again. I better get practicing again then!! I will have to see what they say as I have emailed them regarding the assessment day. 1621181568 May I ask if you're a Qualified Driver? I am just wondering as I believe that if I do become a Junior...

I've applied for the Nottingham vacancy. I've had Shunter experience and I passed 4/5 Phycometric tests with WMR last year so I'm hoping it gives me an edge in the selection process.

Yeah I heard back around mid day. I passed everything to the higher standard apart from the group bourdon :( so got to wait six months now just because of 1 test. So well gutted, I thought I had done so well.

Ah great mate well done!! All the best at stage 2

How's everyone got on with the tests on Monday?

Yeah it wasn't too bad. I felt at ease with most of the tests! Think that was down to the amount of practice I did haha! Where abouts was you sat? I was in a white shirt glasses on, sat right at the back on the left.

Finally got stage 1 done with!! It wasn't as bad as I expected it to be! I feel my practice session's really did help me today! Now to just play the waiting game for my results....

Hi Trundlewagon, Thank you for taking the time to comment. That's good to know that it's more of a relaxed environment with the Driver Manager. I've been told it's down in Watford? I would of thought with the position being in Birmingham then it would be a Birmingham TDM interviewing? They...
