Also congrats KLL94! Any news on the medical yet? They rang me I think a day or two after my confirmation email?

Well thank you kindly 455driver and eastldn! It was definitely the hardest job selection process I've ever had to go through but I'm so chuffed to finally be able to say I work on the railway now! (I'm still half waiting for the phone call to say they made a mistake ??????) Roll on Monday...

Hi all, just wanted to say a huuuuge thank you to everyone who's responded to this thread - my start date is the 9th! I'm so excited and you were really all so helpful and reassuring to me! I did have a 'medical' in the end, although it literally consisted of me going to Swindon to pee in a cup...

Thanks for the replies! I wasn't expecting anything that evening because I know they had two more groups on the Friday just gone, but I wasn't sure how long it would take them to decide on recruits. I did hear somebody say something about within two weeks which would give me until next Tuesday...

Hi all, hopefully this is the right place for this. I applied for a Customer Host position with GWR and had an assessment centre and interview with them last Tuesday. All that's left now is to wait for (fingers crossed!!!) the email saying I've got the job. My question is how long did people who...

When did you find out that you had the job, and was it an email or telephone call? Congrats btw!
