Yes it was just the 3 computerised tests yesterday, and it was in Southampton. He’s waiting for a call back next week about possible interview dates.

Just a quick one , to update this. My sister didn’t pass the online assessment part. But her partner done the second part of the inperson assessments ( the computer tests ) in Southampton yesterday. The first lot of assessments were two weeks before yesterday. He’s waiting for the date of...

Two interviews , one MMI and the second one is DMI. Not too sure which is first or second nowadays. When I had mine I done DMI first , then a few weeks later MMI. After passing both , there was the medical. Hope it helps :)

My sister and her partner applied for Basingstoke. Done the online assessment. Haven’t heard anything since. So fingers crossed. When I done my inperson assessments , it was all in one day in Southampton. Then two separate days for the interviews. This was a few years ago now. My ex done...

I’ve started my classroom training back in 2019. Was 12 of us in the group , 6 internal 6 external. Me and another guy foreigner. Day one at school I said to the trainer if I don’t understand something I’ll ask. Even if it’s a stupid question. They said there’s no stupid questions. So I...

You can come up with anything. Do you have a pet ? And got suddenly ill ? Or went abroad and flight got cancelled on the way back ? So had to call work and tell them ? Or maybe your car / motorbike broke down ? Also when I had mine , the interviews Kent interrupting me. She wanted to make...

Thank you so much. I’ll pass it onto her. She works in a shop at the moment selling furniture , so does deal with difficult customers, specially when orders running late Definitely can get a few examples from her work place. She does have to go to the local station , so it seems like...

Hello , I was just wondering if someone applied or went through the recruitment process for a gateline position recently for SWR ? I tried searching for some threads but none seems to be really recent. I’m looking to help a friend of mine. She filled out the online application a few...

Thank you But just not sure what kinds ? Specially that it’s a cleaners job I know guards / platform do maths test and other things. Just not sure what this could be.

Hi , Does anyone applied for the above job recently for SWR ? It’s a night shift , train cleaning job. My sister just got an invite for an assessment, which will be next week Friday. But the email doesn’t state anything else about it. So no idea how to prepare for it. Is it going to...

I don’t have kids , so probably a bit easier for me. I do Ironman triathlons, do have a coach who plans my sessions according to my work schedule. So won’t end up with a 5hr bike ride on a day when I start work 4am. When I have a later shift I make sure I still set an alarm in the morning...

Here’s my story , started with SWT/R in February 2016 I never planned to work for the railway or knew anything about it. But got in at my first go ( maybe luck ? ) A guard who used to be friend with my husband told me in September 2015 that I should apply for a job in the railway , she said...

1 to get through the door , applied to be a rail operator. Got in straight away. Driver - failed one test , but passed second time. Still a trainee though. Thanks to covid. Coming upto 5 years in February that I’ve started by RO job.

I think it’s definitely depends on the interviewer. My emergency was “ fire on the train at the station “, when I was a dispatcher. I don’t think I’ve started off well because I said to him “ we’ve done this and that etc ... “. Then he said he wants to know what I’ve done, not the team. the...

Hi , If you live in Hungary you’ll need to get a “pre settled status” before the end of the year to be able to work here, after that it’s a points based system. You can read more about that here ...
