    Transpennine Express New Trainee Driver Vacancies

    The waiting for results for this is the worst part! Has anyone done this process in the past, and if so were the results received in the 7-10 days stated? I feel like I stuffed 2 of the tests yesterday, would be nice to be put out of my misery sooner than later! Patience is a virtue and all that...

    I had the DM interview this week for Leeds, they told me they would be interviewing up until the end of next week. Don't lose hope, still plenty of time!

    Well I managed to mess up TRP2, got to the end of a page to realise i had missed a question and had been marking the answers in the wrong box. Hopefully it was only for say 1-2 questions or I can count myself out of the running! My own fault I know, annoying cos I double checked all my answers...

    I'm doomed.....

    I've been practising in rooms with the TV on, or conversations in the background, and even the odd comment from me, to try and make sure I will be able to stay focused when I'm in a room full of scribbling pencils! May be worth a try to those trying to lock their scores in beforehand. Still...

    Cheers, I'll have a quick look through your past posts to have a look but I'm confident with questions supporting the job role so hoping it'll be right on the day with a bit of preparation of course! Appreciate the help from everybody.

    Great, thanks for the feedback. So it is confirmed this is not Structured interview as part of the psychometric testing... just the Driver Manager interview? Thanks! Isn't it typical how you wait for months and then all of a sudden 2 companies come along at once, still I'm not complaining at all!

    No, and it says driver manager - but it seems weird they would hand out all the practice papers at this point, with a warning not to share them about. I'm 99.9% sure it's the driver manager interview, just find it a bit weird. I want to confirm as I am currently attending the FTPE selection...

    Also got an invite and the practice tests, for the Leeds depot. It's weird it states it is an interview but then gives out assessment practice material. I wonder if this is the driver manager interview or structured. The email says driver manager but I do find it strange!

    Would any body be able to give feedback on this? I know there is no known pass mark but if anyone has passed with similar it would fill me with a little confidence. Group-Bourdon Result Statistics Saved on 3/26/2013 at 7:48:59 PM ------------------------------- Overall Statistics...

    Transpennine Express New Trainee Driver Vacancies

    I applied for York and have the DFFT on Thursday. I know the feeling as I didn't get my email till Friday last week when people were hearing at the start of the week, however you never know so don't let up hope yet!

    Transpennine Express New Trainee Driver Vacancies

    Agreed, I had wondered this too! Hope they don't surprise us on Thursday with a Driver Manager Interview! Does anybody know if the FTPE medical standards are different from other companies? I've heard they have a BMI limit of 28, which I definitely cannot meet. I've been on a weight loss...

    Transpennine Express New Trainee Driver Vacancies

    I too received an email asking me to attend the assessment centre on the morning of Thursday the 28th at 9.30am. Anyone else been asked to attend on Thursday? Reading through the document it seems that the dates for assessment are the 25th-27th, so I'm a little concerned but I am sure it is just...

    Becoming a Train driver - 'Self taught'

    Just to jump in and try not to make this any worse... Even if they do not "fly" the aircraft manually for it's entire flight does not mean they are not working. There have been several fatigue related incidents recently including one a few months back where both pilots became so incapable to...

    Yeah, I was of the same opinion. I won't be messing them about when there are so few chances! I emailed them and had my application transferred to Leeds, job done!
