What?

Long drive for you Phatdan. I'm aiming to get to hotel around the same time but not quite so far for me, coming up from Birmingham. I'll leave the tie at home then!

Not long guys!! What time are you all aiming to get to the Hotel on Sunday at? Also, how smart are you dressing on Monday? Full suit, Smart jumper/trousers, Jeans and T-shirt!?! It's all very real now, been a long process since June.

@Si. I'll be driving up, I'm sure there will be no shortage of offers for a lift to and from the holiday Inn. It's only a 1 mile drive/20min walk from Hotel to Basford Hall according to Google maps. @Jambo. Reading up I was aware that we would be working from annualised hours but nothing in...

How are the current group of trainee's getting on? How many weeks left in the classroom? Where were you guys during the second week, were you at your respective depots? I have a few more questions if any current FLHH employees could shed some light on for me. The contract states a 35hr...

Thanks for the info Dan, I was going to call tomorrow to get an update, no need now. Shame we have to wait another month but will be great to get something official in writing. I wonder why the January start date as said in interview has been pushed back? Looking forward to meeting you all, I...

You got Toton in the end Si? Well done, we should be seeing a lot of each other! Does anyone know if there will be just the one group in Jan or will they run two courses like they are currently?

Yes, I'm in the same boat as you guys. Desperate to find out start date and sign contract so I can begin telling everyone the news! Which depot's are you all going to be based at?

Looks like those vacancies are for Freightliner Ltd (Intermodal) rather than Heavy Haul

Had my medical today. All good, just waiting on urine test results. How long does this normally take to come back? Is the 18th the first group starting or is there a training course already ongoing? Are you all at Crewe or is there a course at Ferrybridge to?

Sorry to hear that guys. @gammyleg I'm sure some companies will accept the passes, may even be worth sending a speculative application stating you have passed the assessments to the likes of Colas or other companies that have ongoing recruitment. Nothing ventured, nothing gained.

Hi siw8158, sorry I didn't reply to you earlier it was a phonecall I received. Congrats on being offered a position, I've also been booked in for a medical. Have you heard what depot you will be based at?

Anyone else heard anything back? I was offered a position at Toton, subject to medical! Obviously delighted, raring to go now. Not sure when medical will be just want to get it out of the way and contract signed. Guessing it will be a January start as was suggested in the interview...

Hi mate. How did it go? I was earlier on in the day. Mine seemed to go well. Like the poster above Toton was also put forward to me which would be great as its only 45 mins away from me going off route planner. Though from my research I wasn't aware Freightliner had a depot there. All done...

Anyone else here have their Manager's interview tomorrow? See you there if you do and best of luck
