Disappointingly I failed my DMI, just waiting to get my feedback. I’m not sure if each interview follows the same framework, but there were questions on your company knowledge. Competency based questions, tell me a time you… etc. PM me if you like. Not sure if it’s appropriate for me to list...

Hi, you could always contact recruitment to give them a nudge. I got a phone call invite to my DMI. They did also email. Thanks

Hi, There were interviews over April/May at Ramsgate. Can’t comment on the other depots though sorry. Thanks

I feel positive, but no idea! I got told I could hear this week, if not by the end of next week. The course they mentioned to me was in August.

Good luck with it! I had mine today, where is your interview?

Also have mine next week after waiting a long time! Learn the TPWS sheet, also they’ll ask scenario based questions. Search this forum it’s really useful.

Interesting, I had a reminder to do my interview. So they must still want them to be completed.

I’ve got to do mine, planning on tomorrow morning. Can I ask for a rough idea on what “they” asked you, or the computer asked you? Never done a video interview before! Thanks

Hi, thanks for your response. I’ve done this and am waiting on a response from my current TOC. Also going to sleep on it, and then decide.

I wish I had seen this! Currently hold a pass with another TOC that isn't currently recruiting trainees yet. Do you think it would still be worth emailing them to enquire?

I recently found out that Eurotunnel require an Enhanced pass. I currently have a standard pass, valid until October 2023. I've been invited to an assessment with Eurotunnel, however, I am torn as to whether or not I attend. If I fail, then it overrules my valid pass. The TOC I work for (that...

Hi all, I have an interview for OBM with SE coming up. Has anyone sat one recently or can remember how the interview flowed, what was asked? Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your response. I passed the psychometric assessments and MMI with a different TOC in October 2020. Thanks

Hi all, just after some advice. Also applied (for West Midlands). I have been placed into a talent pool. I wondered, what would you say the biggest challenges a freight train driver may face, would be? I’ve considered - fatigue, route learning, concentration, fault finding and rectifying...
