I think the longer you wait the better by the sounds of it cos I always waited ages to hear back when it was good news and the took 2hrs when it was a no, gotta admit I don't miss the agonising waits between stages. I have started a tattoo apprenticeship so I'm happy the way things turned out...

Hey I heard that day I never got it, thought I done really well. But as the old saying goes when a door closes a window open, manage to bag a job I've wanted since I was in high school. Hope you were successful

I'm in on Monday, just spending the weekend preparing. Although I am not entirely sure what I am preparing for. Keeping my fingers crossed because I was talking to someone that went through the whole process and was successful at every stage but by the end of it there wasn't a position...

How did your interview go? Did they give you any indication of how long they'll wait to contact you about being un/sucessful?

Hi, I am looking for a wee bit of information. I recently passed my conductor assessment with Scotrail. After my assessment I was told they don't have interviews lined up yet. I have done my fair share of looking through these forums and I was wondering what kind of time scale should I be...

I was 6th in for the PA test from what I gather only 2 guys came out in front of me looking like they passed. I am guessing it'll be a wait, my status updated to successful at assessment. I have been looking through the posts and I cannot seem to find the wait between the assessment stage and...

Hi ee el oh, I was also at the assessment on 30th.....Passed too. Been wondering what the next step is(Obv I know its an interview,medical and disclosure) Just wasn't that clear about how long we need to wait. The impression I got was a wee while whilst they fill the train drivers position...
