    Just checked the portal and it’s saying invited to interview although I’ve had no email stating this. Anyone else experienced this?

    A career as a signaller

    Recently, vacancies have been coming up frequently. So, if you’ve still got a while till you start, then the near 3 months you’ll have doing your training, that’s still plenty of time to hopefully find a box that suits your needs. Most important thing is to actually pass the course!

    A career as a signaller

    I was in exactly the same boat. Only secured a box a month after I finished training. Some signallers prefer the 8hrs, but I much prefer the 12hr roster.

    A career as a signaller

    The Hope Valley line boxes are all 12hr. Admittedly, only Totley SB is in Yorkshire, so I guess it depends on what part of Yorkshire you’re interested in. All those boxes would be commutable from Sheffield and places relatively nearby.

    A career as a signaller

    I completed IST 2 years ago now and from reading some of the queries, here’s what I experienced. I think it’s a good idea to stay during the week if your personal circumstances permit. Doing the sim and some group work can take up a large chunk of your evening, so it can be nice to head back...

    Thank you. They’ve said assessments will happen between 2nd and 25th March. I passed stage 1 with a TOC, so I’m hoping I’ll be progressed to stage 2.

    DB Cargo - Trainee Train Driver (2021/2022)

    Was happy to receive an email today regarding invitation for driver assessments for the Peak Forest role. Quite surprised how quick given I only applied 2 days ago!

    Northern - Train Driver Apprentice - Leeds, York, Sheffield (23/12/21)

    Anyone still waiting to hear back about Sheffield? I haven’t heard anything since submitting my application apart from the generic holding emails.

    Crosscountry - Apprentice Drivers - Multiple Depots (12/01/22)

    Received the above email this morning. It was a nice surprise considering I still have an application for Manchester from Feb 21 which I’ve heard nothing about and it still says application in process, so I didn’t have any expectations for this listing.

    TPE - Trainee Driver - Sheffield (04/02/22)

    Hi all. I have a query regarding the assessments. I passed stage 1 with EMR a couple of years ago. They only required national standard and I’m aware that TPE require enhanced. Does anyone know if companies that require national only grade your test national if you pass, or if you actually...

    Northern - Train Driver Apprentice - Leeds, York, Sheffield (23/12/21)

    I believe they’ll shortlist you for an interview with a Driver Manager and then you’ll be put forward for psychometric tests if you’re successful.

    Northern - Train Driver Apprentice - Leeds, York, Sheffield (23/12/21)

    I sent mine Christmas Eve. I could be wrong but everyone should receive today’ s email which is basically saying that all applications are now being screened. So I wouldn’t worry about it :)
