My contract arrived the Saturday (2 days) before as it did with quite a few others. There's a large recruitment drive plus logistical and corporate image changes going on at the minute and it Seems to be quite the norm. Enjoy it when you start. It's great.
I think it was around 6 weeks after application that I heard. The thing to remember us there's a large recruitment drive going on for numerous depots at the minute and only a limited number of training spaces per month. itmght is the there's sch a huge volume to go through its done in stages.
As Sapper said , I was there for 10 and left 1130 ish. I was in Leeds and had to get back to work ( to see my current boss about leaving within my notice period). York is well worth a visit though.
I passed in Manchester mid July, applied for Manchester, they mentioned Blackburn on my 1st interview. I emailed HR on Monday enquiring about Blackburn. They rang me asking if I could make a medical today and I start 5 September.
