I fully agree with CJ's comments. I did one for train manager at Holyhead earlier this evening. Mine consisted of four questions, sixty seconds countdown to prep then eighty seconds to provide answer. Unfortunately I let myself down a little with preparation. I should've completed the process...
In relation to the six month rule for reapplying for a role, is it from date application is submitted or date when notified as unsuccessful? Apologies if this has previously been asked anywhere.
Reason I ask is I couldn’t go for Chester in March as I’d applied for Crewe in November. I received...
Anyone in for the two jobs listed in the North had any recent updates? I put in for train crew at Llandudno Junction in February and trainee conductor for Machynlleth in March (after verifying it wasn't just that location but multiple depots). The Llandudno role is showing as on hold on the...
Many thanks for your reply. That's good to know about Chester as that is closest depot for me over Crewe so would definitely suit. My application is in so hoping I hear something. I'll work wherever there is a posting, as you say it's getting into the industry in the first instance.

Good luck to everyone still in the running.
