Just got an invite to assessment but only one date 9th June offered. Anyone know if Southern normally offer a choice of dates or who I could contact to check this ? thanks for any help !

absolutely nothing. i think now we are two months post application closure it is best to assume the worst......... but with nothing heard whatsoever it is impossible not to still wonder ???!!! if any lurkers out there have had a reply for eastleigh please put the rest of us out of our misery.....

Might be a silly question, but surely Barnham is not considered as a London depot ?

Can anyone else confirm that DB Schenker seem to have considerably simplified their application form ? I filled one out last year and it required answers to some of the MMI type questions but I could not submit it because the vacancy closed early. The form for the current vacancies seems to...

So has nobody else heard back about this one ? I know Hardy had an interview for Leeds but has anyone had any contact re the Eastleigh vacancy. Any info much appreciated by those still hoping in vain.......

Can anyone categorically confirm that 30 mins is the max commuting time Southern will allow for potential trainee driver candidates ? I know this has been asked before but the answers seem to vary. Any help appreciated

Have SWT been accepting applications recently ?

So if you pass an assessment does that mean the TOC/FOC are required to put you through to the next stage, until you fail ? Surely if you pass stage 1 for example, the company may turn round and say yes you passed but we don't want to pursue your application. This could be that other...

Nothing yet. Am assuming good or bad news for us is related to the results from the ongoing interviews. Any of the guys who interviewed last week be kind enough to offer a suggestion of how many they were interviewing last week ????

I echo your sentiments of concern. I also phoned Colas this morning, but my phone call was not so disparaging. The lady I spoke to actually told me very little, but when asked, she did say I was still in contention for the role. Am hoping there are lots of variables in their decision making...

Congratulations to those who have interviews in Rugby next week ! I was part of what seemed like the second batch of people to be notified that they had passed stage 1, but whose date for the 2nd stage was unconfirmed because the assessment centre was full. Anyone else from that group had a...

Get in there........had an email the same as yours bolli.

might be a stupid question, but can anyone with experience of the DBschenker process tell me if you need to currently live within commuting distance of listed depots or whether they accept people who are willing to relocate ???? thanks for any help on this.

aaah, maybe i missed something. I thought one guy had said he failed but reading back maybe he didn't even turn up. Anyway, whatever, I could really do with knowing one way or the other.......
