    If you're successful at interview you'll be offered the position pending your medical result. If there are a lot of successful candidates you may be pooled or progressed based on your interview score.

    If you had to bump the thread from 5 pages down I think it's safe to assume that no one as heard anything.

    Driving, apply or not

    It's guard's rate +5% at Merseyrail; plus you can work rest days as a guard while on the school (obviously providing it doesn't interfere). But yeah, phone your HR dept.

    Trainee Drivers TPE

    The person I spoke to said "Any updates will still be via email; you've not been forgotten about, and you've not missed anything, so don't worry", as well as going on to say she could appreciate that the wait might be frustrating.

    Trainee Drivers TPE

    I phoned TPE HR on Monday for the first time since the interview. I was advised process was still live, but held up due to franchise handover, await further information. You'll notice a number of executive, and technical positions with Transpennine advertised on the First careers website...

    ATW Trainee train driver vacancies

    Workmates of mine who had passed to national standard opted to retake some of the tests to achieve enhanced scores; they were told, by OPC asessors, that failure of a test would nix the previous pass and count as one 'life' lost.

    ATW Trainee train driver vacancies

    As far as I understand it, it would; the pass is a 'status' on which employment is contingent, not just something to progress at the start of recruitment. If you retake and miss out on the enhanced score in one test, you're no longer eligible for a TOC which requires an enhanced score; fail one...

    ATW Trainee train driver vacancies

    I'm pooled for my own TOC, I've got a DMI coming up for another, it's not worth the stress or the risk against my current position.

    ATW Trainee train driver vacancies

    Oh, ok, I didn't notice that on the vacancy; email refers to April only, no mention of a pool. If correct, the OPC requirement seems rather excessive. Good luck with your next application!

    ATW Trainee train driver vacancies

    Not sure what you mean. The email was an invite to the telephone interview, and a timeline for the recruitment process (start of training beginning of April). What format does the telephone interview take? Is it the standard "tell us about a time when..." questions? There's been some...

    ATW Trainee train driver vacancies

    I'm on the railway already; I've been a guard for three years, was a station assistant for two. Emergency services staff have definitely got the right aptitudes, so keep applying. As for how often they recruit, I applied last time they advertised for Chester but was unsuccessful at...

    ATW Trainee train driver vacancies

    I've just received an email advising that I'm through to the next stage. Has anyone here had a telephone interview with ATW before?

    The last email was quite definite: "The next step of the process will be a Driver Manager interview for which you will be contacted by email in due course to confirm the details."

    Any suggestion from the person you spoke to that Liverpool interviews would be conducted in Manchester? Anyone else still in for Liverpool after the OPC?

    Trainee Drivers TPE

    Where did you hear that, mate? I've been told there's currently only one vacancy at Liverpool. Also heard they'll need a good few more passed out for 2017 with the new Glasgow & Edinburgh route.
