    If you get to the in person interview, from the experience i had with mine at Glasgow, you will be shown an example of the rotas and how they work etc. But other depots may do things differently.

    Staff members giving their names in announcements

    All down to personal preference. Can understand for the Guard/ Train Manager giving first name and those of the catering crew. Especially on IC journeys for those of drivers never been announced for when been travelling. For myself, work in retail so only time mention name freely is when...

    LNER - Trainee/Apprentice Train Driver - Recruitment Discussion

    Done mine today for the video interview and by how I dislike them. For the time I imagine it was a typo by the person who posted it as 1 min prep followed by 3 min to answer the question. Time to just wait and see

    TransPennine Trains - Conductor Recruitment and Discussion

    For the RAAT/ TCT helps but isn't majorly needed due to how they are. (Question based) For the SCAAT beyond recommend having a mouse as how the test is done. As got to be accuarate and quick as possible.
