During the interview you will need to demonstrate your suitability for the role of train driver and this is done by being marked against different criteria. You are marked from 1-5 for each criteria. 1 being a poor fit meaning you failed to give evidence against that criteria and 5 being a...

I am a SE driver based at Victoria and it's not that bad but saying that most young drivers are leaving or trying to leave. The older drivers are comfortable and have few years until they retire otherwise they would also be leaving. A fellow driver is leaving to go Arriva (New Cross) and I have...

I also work at Vic

@ComUtoR, there has been lots of speculation about pugs hole in the last few months none of which were about pugs hole closing.

I am a driver at Victoria and can confirm there is parking at Victoria. There are parking spaces avaiable for employees at pugs hole although it is getting more difficult to obtain a parking permit these days.

Everybody's DM is different. I was not asked any questions from my MMI and was just a chat really. Ended up talking about lifting weights in the gym haha. They were nice. I have heard some stories that people were asked similar questions to that of the MMI but different toc's do it different I...

Yes @jaeger, they will be the exact questions asked for the MMI. Those will remain the questions until they change the assessments in would imagine.

I'm assuming that's for the role of tube operator with TfL as I sat the rVCe test last year with them. You don't need to purchase any material In preparation for it. You will be played a voice message from a driver to a signaller about an accident in a tunnel. While the message is being played...

Everybody is asked the same 6 questions for the MMI. They have been plastered all over this forum! 1. Describe a time when you followed rules and procedures 2. Describe a time when you have solved a difficult problem 3. Describe a time when you have been on a training course over 2weeks or...

Try to work on it for next time chris11256. As you've said you passed the all the questions perfectly so should be easier next time. I'm sorry for the bad news though.

I'm shocked they can fail you for a minor stammer!! Surely that can't be the reason why?

From my experience my MMI lasted aprx 25mins if that. GMT is absolutely correct. If you structure your answer properly and reference key words you won't be probed.

@chris11256, pm me if you need any advice regarding the MMI. I'll help if I can.

Hi guys, I have seen an advertisement for trainee train driver with Southeastern at Faversham depot. https://www.southeasternrailwaycareers.co.uk/templates/Southeastern_Railway/jobdetail.aspx?raparam=4670366C7A717776775842307250422B48744D7930585534745332697A577376 Closes 29th January.

@Zavy, to my understanding if you have failed at any stage of the assessment twice (not including the DMI) then you can no longer apply to be a train driver unless they change the assessments in which case you can apply and sit the assessment again.

@Webby you shouldn't place worry on those questions you asked. The key for passing the group bourdon is practice. When I done my first practice test on paper I was VERY slow and only managed to complete a couple lines while others managed 12+ lines. I was disappointed and knew I needed to up my...

For the ATAVT test they are not expecting candidates to score 100% although if you can then that's great. Accuracy is key so you want to score as high as possible. I would recommend fellow users who are due to take the computerised tests to visit YouTube and type in "Schuhfried Vienna test"...

No need for statements like that @Rocket! Here on this forum we should only promote encouragement and aid if needs be. A fellow user posts a simple question so a simple answer is what's required and possibly an explanation not derogatory comments. People can learn and with the right attitude and...

@chris11256 it's imperative you have a brief understanding of the key skills and attributes required of a train driver in order to be successful in the MMI (all 6 questions). You must remeber that the MMI answers do not have to be work related and can come from your social life so it's...

@Tron81 during the eye examination your eyes will be tested individualy. Near sight and long sight.
