Good on you mate, I wish that would happen to me. :D

Thanks for that Inge that's cleared a few things up for me and you're right it is a ridiculously long process, I applied for the conductor position in March, passed everything and still no guarantee of a job at the end of it. I still live and hope and won't rest till I'm working for Scotrail...

Hi Inge, just wondering if you have past all assessments and interviews for the Guard positions. I am on hold having completed all the processes. I assume if a position comes up current employees will get first shot of the job with outsiders coming next or does it depend on who scores the...

Cant help much but if you do the paper test you'll walk it as its much easier than the one on the computer.

Gutted for you mate, but chin up and keep at it, I've been trying for three years and seven applications and still not in yet but nearly.

Thats the way to do it, a, I passed all my assesments and interviews by doing the same things you did, I even took a week off work prior to the interview to study and swat and it paid off. There can sometimes be thousands of people apply for these jobs because they are such good careers to...

I think you meant to say unsuccesful there, but dont let it put you off, I only passed on my seventh application so keep at it.

Deffo need to chase them up to hear what your results are, they may have been an oversight on their part.

Was the interview for Conductor or driver? I had a structured interview for conductor and got an Email four days later with my results. That was on 30th Aug.

Its deffo a life changer and a job for life with great prospects. Try and keep relaxed about it and enjoy yourself, remember these guys want to see how you react under pressure and how you work as a person, although answering the questions to the best of your abilities is important, dont lie if...

Hi, Yes I passed the interview but I am currently on hold awaiting positions becoming available. As far as I know the asessment good for three years is for all tocs, they are not going to shell out a lot of money to put the same people through the same test time and again. As for getting an...

Hi Nkay, Well done on passing your assesment, now comes the tricky part. I just went through the process with Scotrail and as far as I'm aware the assesments are good for three years. so any future applications for conductor should just be selection and interview. My advice is to swat up...

Hi Mate, best advise I can give having been through it is just relax and be yourself, most of the questions asked relate to your personal experiences and skills that can be transferable over to the roll of conductor. I wasn't asked about any routes or asked for any proof of previous...

It went as expected, two interviewers firing all sorts of questions at you for about an hour, relaxed atmosphere but at the same time quite intense. They said it could be a week or two before I hear. Were you there too or do you have another date?

Just wondering if anybody who passed this assesment has heard anything regarding a structured interview. Thats two and a half months since the assesment and I'm beginning to wonder if they've forgot all about us.

Still sitting at the same as you mate, its a killer aint it. :lol:

Does anyone have any idea of a FSR conductors normal monthly take home pay would be. As I understand there is commission on ticket sales on top of wages as well as overtime. Any Ideas? :D

Hi RO, I think being unable to drive would have stopped you getting this far, Its a case of, as long as you can get to your work within an hour whether public transport is available or not. I know how you feel about being excited, i feel the same but as usual we'll just have to wait it out...

Thanks Cameron, don't let what i've said put you off trying, you'll never no till you give it a go. And RO well done to you too. I think its just a case of sitting tight and waiting till they have enough people to do the interviews at the same time, but god nows how long that will be. Do you...
