With regards to the Dials Test; I don't agree with guessing the answer. Why not focus the time on answering the questions properly until you are told to put 'pens down'? If it takes you 40 seconds to guess the last eight, (based on 5 seconds per question to do the bloody shading in!), you may...

Keep at it mate. Having done it gives you a huge advantage for the next time. :wink:

Aw no mate. I'm gutted for you. :cry::cry: At least you know you can nail the other tests. Something to work on for next time pal. Do you know how many got through?

Cheers for the kind words guys. :) Thanks mate.:D Yes, the test was the official MT4.1 Mechanical Comprehension. The questions were exactly as I imagined; gears, weights, balances, direction of travel, circuit boards etc.. and were much harder than the practice material. Shame you...

Thank you Jesslin. :D I've applied for Manchester Piccadilly.

Cheers mate. The GB was on paper. Which I think is marginally better than doing it on a computer. Good luck for Thursday. Let me know how you get on. :D

Hi folks, I sat the assessments today at DB Schenker along with four other lads. A very challenging day by any mans standards. Out of the five of us at the start, I was the only one left at lunchtime. :( Thankfully, I've now passed the Driver Managers Interview and all of the assessments...

When is your assessment day Sidekick?

I'm booked in for the assessments too. :D Maybe see you guys there. Thats interesting. Which particular tests are incorrect?

Try and keep calm under pressure matey. If your shaking from listening to an answerphone message, then the assessments will send you potty. :lol: Have a read back through the careers section. There are loads of helpful threads in relation to the recruitment criteria. Best to do that...

No they don't test that. :wink:

Hi Jesslin, Have you had an interview yet? They are very specific on their policy, should you be successful in your application. Basically they state you need to write off all holiday commitments for the first few months whilst the course is on-going. The driver manager who interviewed me...

How many did you complete? I recall finishing 11 and passed.

I agree. Especially now he's making good progress on the GB. Maybe it should now read; I'm bored.. :lol::lol:

That made me chuckle. :D Only because it sounds so familiar with my little two year old. Oh how the results drop when there are distractions around.:lol:

Hi mate, Nothing wrong with being a newbie. We have all been one at some point. :D In answer to your thread title, there is only one person who can realistically answer that. If you want something bad enough, like many on here, then you have to do everything you possibly can to get it...

I did this test last year and to be honest its pretty straightforward. Just work to your own pace and don't rush. If you do, you'll miss error/faults, that means you lose points. Stick to the quality not quantity rule.:wink: The same pattern applies to all these tests. Work to your own...

Got this coming up.:| Some brilliant advice and guidance in relation to this test on this thread. Cheers.:D Thats crazy mate. What in your opinion was the cause? I can't understand if someone is doing everything right, at the right time, in the right sequence and your making good and quick...

Cheers. Good to get through another essential part of the process. Like I mentioned in an earlier post, I actually rather enjoyed the interview. Probably more than I'll enjoy doing the assessments in a few weeks. Maybe see you there Wall88. :D All the best.

Hi guys, Just had an e-mail back from HR. Says the following: Thank you for attending your recent interview. We are pleased to inform you that you met the required criteria at this stage and that we are currently looking to organise driver assessments in the near future. We will contact...
