Starting to worry now. I'm assuming we were probably in at the same tests. I e-mailed a couple of times since then and was told it was all on hold for obvious reasons. Also e-mailed a couple of times more recently and haven't heard anything back.

Patience is a virtue eh. February 2020 seems so long ago.

Hi folks, Long time lurker on here. Had my tests on the 5th of February and heard within two hours that i'd passed. I had planned on inviting those there for a drink afterwards but by the time i'd came out the loo everyone was away. How did everyone else find it? I honestly thought i'd buggered...

Mine was supposed to be after a nightshift but I managed to get it swapped. How did it go?

We done the dials last. But they'll probably change the order and tests slightly I'd imagine. Pay attention to the examples they give you to try first is the best advice. Thanks and best of luck to you if it not too late.

Assessment centre today. Thought I'd buggered it to be honest with the last one. Got an email about 2 hours later which was totally unexpected to say I'd passed the first round.

I'm in on Wednesday after applying in May last year and just assumed i'd been unsuccessful. Now sitting doing the practice stuff like I'm back at uni. The MMI is the bit i'm most nervous about since I don't usually interview well. Has anyone had an MMI recently? Is it likely that i'll get mine...

Natural things which have been proven to encourage the body to burn more fat and which I have used in the past are green tea, black coffee and blueberries. Can't help with the synthetic supplement side of things.

At least it gives you plenty of time to do your homework eh? :lol:

I applied in May also and haven't heard anything.

Sorry to hear that Jord. I always try and keep an open mind. I certainly wouldn't like to play poker with the folk that do the interviews. They're always hard to read.

Probably a stupid question but how do I know what depot id be in for? I take it living in Paisley it would be Glasgow?

I'm glad some people are still finding out. I was beginning to lose hope that I hadn't made it through the application. Can anyone direct me to the best place to read up on Abellio Scotrail. I'm sure there must be more to it than just a simple Google search.

I've worked in the NHS since I was sixteen and have been a radiographer for 9 years. Wanted to be a train driver when I was younger but was always "encouraged" towards getting further education by my parents. Now with trainee driver jobs advertised i'm seriously thinking of applying.
