Hi all. ?????? Firstly good luck to you all, everyone deserves a fair chance. I'm a Fully qualified firefighter with my Hgv class 2, trauma care medical qualification and blue light driving certificate ... I am also a Police recovery driver too. I'm working 100+ hours per week without fail and...

You also need 2 A levels and have 2 years plus experience in rail, engineering or logistics. That's that straight out the window for me haha

I'm still yet to receive any bad news.

Well that's my application in, assessments and MMI already nailed and that aptitude test wasn't so bad. Sit and wait patiently ☺️

I took my DBS assessments ( all of them ) and the MMI and passed all in January this year at Doncaster. I've not had any call/email saying recruitment is frozen etc and also some have said that they have had emails saying they are not wanted for now and good luck but I've not had this one...

I applied for Leicester and Crewe... Passed my assessments at Doncaster in Jan and I've not heard anything yet nor received that no more intake email. :-)

Managers interviews aren't part of your passable assessments. If you had failed the MMI twice then yes that's a different story... That would be game over but the managers interview, as crucial and important as this interview is, it's judged purely by your potential depot manager, if you fail it...

It's easier than the practice one, only 2 pattern formations of the 4 dots from what I remember and its pen and paper. Good luck, don't let this forum scare you into thinking its hard.

Well done Andy999!! It's an awesome feeling isn't it :D I'm holding out for Leicester but I've added Crewe to my application too. Either or - I'm happy!

A strong guess from me would say that it will take on the same form as most GB tests under the new assessments and it will be pen and paper, 5 sets, each set lasting around 1 to 2 minutes.

I was on my own all day so I didn't have to feel sorry for anyone! Haha :-D

Thankyou, I applied for Leiscester and Crewe. :-)

Hi Waterfairy349 (You can probably guess my current profession from that hahaha), Just thought I'd send you a message as you are local to where I'm relocating to (South Normanton). I've applied to East Midland Trains for the Depot driver role but as yet haven't heard a thing... I know a lot...

Andy999 and raoa4x ... The MMI comprises of 6 questions asking you to give examples of ( can't remember them all ) - When have you had to persevere to learn something? When have you done something where it was imperative you didn't make a mistake? When have you been in an emergency...

Hello, Thankyou, much appreciated. Okay, so... the day starts with the most obvious test to weed people out from the start, the GBT. Apparently i did well on this and i only did around 7 lines per block but i did them with pure accuracy. All the other tests, in my mind at least, were...
