Have a look at the thread I made called Northern Conductor Interview, about 5 pages of up to date info as I had my interview today.
Which location is it for?
Slightly different, didn't ask when I'd helped someone but asked me when I dealt with a complaint or a disruption and similar things.
I think they might have various sets of questions because the woman said everyone "today" would be getting asked the same questions. Or it might be the same...
I'll be even more gutted if I passed the assessment and they chose someone else, at least you've had experience of the process for future applications like you say.
Exactly, it probs just comes down to the interviewer, they might already have someone in mind before either of us were interviewed, definitely agree with getting to this stage is an achievement alone.
Have to get to the Assessment day first lol, I'm going to try to not be too put out if I don't make it that far, with the competition being what it is.
Well that's me done, just a matter of time now.
I think the further assesment consists of some ticket selling/checking and a Group Bourdon, from what I can gather. Also the medical involves wee on a pot and eyesight.
Ah yeah, glad I asked now or I'd have been wandering round inside Central :')
Just trying to sort my answers out now, Thanks for all your help too, I don't get why they didn't put you through to the next stage as it's clear you've put alot of effort into the whole process. Hope they give you...
Brilliant, that's exactly what I was hoping for, rather than having to keep referencing what I've researched.
On a side note to save me asking someone there, where exactly are the Central Offices in Central Station?
I've had a look at the passenger charter but not the social responsibility booklet, yet. I'm doing the majority of going over things now so its fresh in my mind, then might arrive 30-40 mins early and go over it with a coffee beforehand.
Yeah I would agree, I don't have anywhere near as much experience as yourself but I can only put myself across as best as possible, they must see something they like if they've given me an interview.
You may not have, might just not have had enough/right experience, best to get feedback if you can though for your own peice of mind!
I'm going to try my best and draw on my cash handling and procedures experience etc.
