Hi there, I'm going through my conductor training with scotrail and was told at the training school scotrail won't employ you if you have had laser eye surgery if you are a driver or conductor. That was from an ex conductor who was going to get the surgery and was told not to if they wanted to...

Cool. Did you ask lots of questions like how many conductors and drivers are in Perth? (I was asked that at my interview) You might want to find out the routes that the Perth conductors work as you may be asked that too ;) There are lots of links on here if you want to know the structured...

You might want to look round the station. Do you know any conductors/drivers at Perth? I found a lot of information for my DM interview from a train driver. Use previous experience for your examples to the structured questions and research both first and Scotrail. Good luck!!

So who are you? lol There were only a few of us left after the cut ;)

I had my assessment on 18th December in Glasgow and DM interview on 7th Jan in Perth. Was that the same day you were in for yours?
