I’ve just seen the Cambridge and Ely signaller position come up. Does anyone have any info if Grade 2 is just during training? Also if Cambridge is grade 2 even after training is that the basic? Is there a shift premium or Sundays paid as overtime for example? I’m Interested in this as a career...

Hey have you heard anything since the email about the delay?

Ok thanks. It’s good and reassuring to hear that we’re all in the same boat.. or maybe we’re all just crap. ;)

No news is good news I guess. Odd though was they said their recruitment and training is on a tight schedule in the advert.

Has anyone heard anything or had an interview yet? I’ve completed the tests and it looks like my application is still active. I thought I would have heard something by now, whether it’s good or bad news.

Thanks so much for this insight. Sounds very interesting. Has anyone heard anything back yet? I’ve done the online tests (they sent two at the same time) but I’ve not had any more.

Do you mean pick up overtime or be allocated night shifts to work on your GPR? Also is there a max amount of hours they can give you per week during those two weeks of “anything goes”

Do you think this is a realistic roster? The person who shared it said it might be out of date.

A member shared this roster pattern with me. Hope that helps. Have you been invited to the online assessments yet?

Hi all does anyone have any idea what the shift pattern is or likely to be for this role? I’m going to apply anyway but would be great to get an idea because it’s quite a commute for me to Romford. Just wanted to check whether it’s feasible based on the shifts. Cheers

Has anyone heard anything or had an interview that hasn’t completed the tests? Other than the initial one we all had to do at the start of course..

Ok thanks
