Called them recently and the answer is basically not for externals. Mainly internals with maybe 2 externals on the course.
Long wait expected, long enough for a 2nd second medical for one poster on here.
I got passed it, it's faulty software. Failed first time so did it again
The one where it asks for "A time when you have ...customer conflict..."
Answer Yes and that one works !!
How long after your 1st medical did they get in touch about a 2nd one ?
Mine was at the end of Feb so a bit of leeway still, but it took over 2 months to get the first one booked after the job offer.
Now starting a new job next week rather than wait and hope for a quick date as it's mainly all...

Last time out 2017 of which I was one, apparently over 15,000 applied, but that was open longer if I remember !
I was lucky enough to be successful, but 4 months since being offered the job still waiting for training dates :(
