thanks for your insights regarding the actual test. And answering your question, yes, I believe signalling is for me. At the end of the day, I did apply after making sure I had all the necessary requirements. Without entering a discussion on the merits and inevitable shortcomings of situational...

So, I applied for 3 signalling position at the start of June, on Friday I received an answer for one of them, after the online situational test I was unsuccessful :( this is not giving me good hopes for the other 2, just waiting for an answer back now. What I would like to know is, do I need to...

I agree with you, and I know it is not easy, especially if really busy at work and with a young family. I managed to lose 2 stones already, and still losing now. No fad diets, just cutting out unhealthy snacks in front of tv late at night, and sensible homecooked food. Also walking 30 mins each...

I have followed with interest the blood pressure's thread, realising that I do not know exactly what will happen during the medical (if I ever get there, that is). Considering that I have applied for a signaller job, what is the doctor going to look at? I know hearing and eyesight tests, but do...

Thanks for your answer, hopefully some good news in the next few days. Rory

Thanks, an actual timeframe is most useful. I should have specified that what I wanted to know was how long it takes to get an answer back, regarding the actual online assessment, and not the whole process. My bad. It looks like it is still early days, as the deadline, for the position I applied...

Thanks for taking the time to answer my question...will see to stay positive and wait patiently:D

Hi everyone, been lurking for a couple of weeks, now taking the plunge to post a question: apologies if this has been asked before.. I have recently applied for a signalling position, completed the online test etc; how long should I have to wait before getting an answer? I am really hoping it...
