Did TFW Recruitment Confirm that theres no more courses for the North or only for the Depot you applied? Im in the pool for llandudno junction or Holyhead, passed Dmi in January and heard nothing since. There was supposed to be 5 courses for the north This year but 2 have been put on hold...

Yes im sure they will explain it all, Ive seen the practice dials on another thread here that shows all dials as HPLA and the outer numbers all heaving the same Value, Just intrigued to know if HPLA dials in 1 question on actual can actually all have different outer number values? And how would...

Thanks, So basically, H & P could have a needle in same ie.. Grey segment.. But you could have H marked 2,4,6,8 & P marked 10,20,30,40. Then you would go with H as its a lower value even though needles are identical area?. Thanks

A friend failed the Cables and Dials test a few years ago, Can anyone confirm that the outer numbers are totally irrelevant until the pointer is in The same segment on 2 or more dials? and in the real test that all the dials in a single row (HPLA for instance) will have the same outer numbers on...

Nice to see movement again, when did you apply, sure there will be a few opportunities to sit assessments in the next few week’s if you cant make this one , what depot are you in for? I seen the advertisement for Holyhead last week was only open for 4 days:(

Have you taken the assessments previously, maybe by confirming NI number they can check results maybe?

this is what the test looked like on the day as you say the dials may have been different or changed further in to the test , you would then mark them correctly in order PHLC or similar I. Cant seem to find any examples online or practice material for this test with the 4 dials, Only a similar...

https://www.railforums.co.uk/threads/cables-dials-test.82502/#post-1429751 I think its this one . Just on the test i done last week dial 1 Power had number 1-20. Other 3 heat , coolant and light had numbers 1-100. Total confusion to me...

cant find a single example online anywhere with 4 Dials .. I don't think its new though ** as there is an example on a thread here dating back to 2013. (Hand drawn image on a thread)

Cheers guys . Any ideas on why dial no1 is numbered 1-20 or is it 1-25 (not sure) and all other Dials are numbered 1-100; no doubt it was explained in the cd / test booklet , but this is what threw me . I was pretty strong on practice with the 3 pie chart style ..

Ive recently sat assessments and failed on the dials test, I dont know if they were wrong or I didn’t correctly mark enough, I done about 15.. Reading a post on this thread it states in their test that three dials were used with different numbers on some dials. Now the set I faced had 4 dials...

Can anyone confirm Does TFW carry the DFFT “driver fault finding” during the driver assessment test

My personal experience was when I went through interviews last year was 7days.

Does any one know if TFW requires assessments pass rate to be enhanced or national standard, also In house or OPC.
