Thanks for the that. I've just received an invite for a medical, would it be possible for a heads up on what to expect and may sound like a silly question but what did you wear?

Good afternoon Peter and welcome to the forum. I'm afraid I can't help with any of those questions but was just wondering when you accepted and if you have been given a course date? I have also been offered a job medical pending but no start date as of yet. Thanks in advance.

Hi gabriella. Firstly congratulations for getting the invite to assessments. I never done my assessments with SWT as I had already passed them with another TOC, but when I had my interview there were a few people doing the assessments and chatting to them they said that they are doing all the...

Have you prepared for competency based questions? They will definitely be asked. Just be yourself and be honest, keep eye contact at all times and if you're not sure what is being asked then double check with them. Good luck I'm sure you'll be fine.

Well in that case keep going as you are and play it by ear. When you get the phone call saying you've passed then you could ask these questions to whom ever you speak to, I'm sure they will get all the paperwork out to you in time so you can give the correct notice period, otherwise why would...

So spoke to HR to be told they have received thousands of applications so it is taking longer than normal to get through them but everyone will hear at some point.

I still haven't had any communication with them, haven't really had the chance to try call them at the moment either if I get 5 minutes today I'll call them and let you know what the outcome is.

Thanks i was over the moon to receive the good news. I am down for staines and I haven't actually been given a start date which makes it all that much worse. What depot are you going for?

I'm not sure how south West operate their standards but I'm sure someone else will be able to help out.

Evening, I had my interview just before the announcement of the take over was made and was told it would have no effect to them needing drivers. Saying that though I'm still awaiting a medical date and was told they would be in contact once the announcement had been made and they knew the...

Well done, nothing like a good surprise in the morning!! That's a good sign for the people that are just waiting for a medical date, it shows we will still be required.

I still haven't heard a thing regarding my application. When I spoke to them they said it could take up to four months which by my calculations would be on the 11th of this mo th so I'll just have to wait and see what happens.

Hi techno, sorry to hear you failed at the last hurdle I think most of us have been in the same situation including myself. Did you get feedback? When you do get your next chance make sure you improve on the points given in the feedback.

Sorry to hear that tweeds but congratulations with the job offer with GTR. How do you feel the interview went? As intense as everyone says?
