    Exactly like me then! I originally applied for a West Anglia job. It too such a long time due to the reaction test breaking so it wasn't until late last year I had my managers interview, which I wasn't successful at. Second time lucky and on my doorstep! Maybe it's fate.. (although I don't...

    Oh yeah, since I first applied in early 2012, i've been so patience waiting for each stage but now it seems even harder! I just got confirmation that hopefully it will be 7th March. I hope i'm not too deaf.

    Haha why is everyone getting told dates. I have no idea myself! Stressing about notice period, medical and start dates here :p

    Odd! I've replied to emails and asked for a potential start date but haven't got any replies. I only have to give one weeks notice (Might be two but the contract says 1 so what can you do :p). So what's all this talk of March 7th? Is that a different course? Seems a bit strange!

    I got my medical date and have confirmed. Haven't got any reply yet and no idea of a start date. So i'm assuming it could be 7th March like other people..

    Now Playing....

    Les hasn't played in CoF since around 1999! He went on to work with Anathema (one of my favourite bands) but has also moved on from them. Edit: I just read your post properly.. Anathema yes! I was sad when Les left but the new guy seems to have his heart in it and the newer album is mindblowing...

    I can't stop thinking about it! The interview, the interview I had last year.. the letter.. etc It's only Thursday. I hope we hear soon(ish) if I was the last of 6 people who got to this stage then it can't be too hard to get it sorted.. :) I think the interviewers mentioned your husband...

    I'd forgotten how painful waiting is.. and it's only been a day. I can't imagine how the rest of you feel!

    Rail companies do not like employing....

    I'm struggling a lot with this myself. I've got an interview tomorrow and when I get asked about why I want to work in the industry I don't know whether to say i've always wanted to work in it and had a fascination.. The truth is that and i've never been able to put my finger on what it is...

    I don't feel prepared! My problem is i'm confident in my abilities to do the job but not confident in showing/explaining in an interview :p. Also feel a bit negative due to not having my feedback from the last interview which to me felt really positive and I can't think what I did wrong so...

    Medicals

    I've got a bit of hearing loss in my right ear.. high frequencies n all. Down to playing guitar with an amp 75% of the time on the right side of me in rehearsals.. silly really. Hope it isn't too much.. if I get to the medical stage!

    29th. Was your husbands at Colchester station? Any insights? How long it lasted and was it quite casual? My last managers interview was like the structured interview and really competency based.
