Yep thinking about applying to TPE and XC.
Thanks for the reply.

Thank you both.
Reading what they’ve said it says they want the form back signed by me within 5 workings days in order to progress my application. So I take it I can assume from that it means they’ll then forward straight onto my current TOC…
Like I said I have nothing to hide, it just...
Good Morning,
Can I ask anyone that has recently applied for another TOC as a qualified driver. Does the new TOC contact your current TOC to confirm your SOL record after submitting your application? It says on the consent form that the current TOC should respond in 5 days with the requested...
Hi,
Firstly good luck!
Did you have to upload a CV or anything else or was it just basic personal details, and the questions you mention above? Which depot did you apply for?

"Your train has failed during SLW whilst you were traveling through in the wrong direction. You are unable to make contact with the signaller. Identify what direction you will proceed in and what...
Make sure you have sat for at least 10mins before the reading as well this will help, it should never be taken for example straight away having driven to the docs to get there booked in and then straight in (not that ever happens at the gp's ). Good luck.
Thanks westcoaster, just to clarify I have taken and passed the mainline driver recruitment tests but these would not count or be taken into consideration for the depot driver position? (as far as you are aware)
Does anybody know in that case what the psychometric tests are likely to consist...
If you have passed all the mainline trainee driver assessments with FCC but are waiting for a position, would you have to sit the psychometric tests for this position does anybody know? Cheers
Hi does anybody have FCC's HR/recruitment number to call re my application which is on hold following driver mangers interview? Anyone I should ask for?
Thanks
Dan
