    Upcoming CBI - Can anyone help please?

    Just want to say thanks to everyone who replied to my post and offered me advice. Yesterday, I received good news that I have progressed to the Manager's interview. I'm hoping that this final interview with FCC will be less structured and more about me, the company and the role. Thanks again.

    FCC Trainee Train Driver First Stage

    Congratulations Polar. I've just been informed I passed as well. I hadn't given it much thought as it was very hard to gauge how the 2nd stage went. Anyway, bring on more worry! Hopefully the line manager interview will be more personal and not as structured.

    Upcoming CBI - Can anyone help please?

    Thanks LCC106 - I fully understand you not wanting to give too much away. I'm most interested in the breakdown of the written part to help with my timing and not any actual content. If I'm successful at this stage, then there's a Managers interview to follow.

    Congratulations JB25. You must have been really pleased to say the least. At the structured stage (written part), can you remember how many sub questions were asked for each main question? On my practice material there are two examples. Any help would be appreciated - Thanks.
