Had your driver trainee course fall through? It may be a blessing in disguise as dbs are looking to recruit 6 x apprentice operation managers... surely worth a try https://www.rail.dbschenker.co.uk/rail-uk-en/careers/Current_Vacancies/Current_Vacancies_uk/Operations_Management_.html :D

I had the June 2014 thing pop up at me when I finished the test aswell. However I don't think calling will get you anywhere. It does state that they will not entertain email or phone calls about the positions. Secondly it also states that they will only accept online applications.... Looks like...

No one did I think. Pretty sure after the last page it said thank you for submitting your application etc...

hmm discussing the content of the test am I the only one finding it a little inappropriate?

Think I read on the heavy haul feed flhh hr posted that there are no confirmation emails if you received the last page stating application submitted we will notify successful applicants in June then your application has been received.

Cheers rocket :D

I believe that freightliner is split into essentially two companies, intermodal and heavy haul I would imagine that due to heavy haul being involved in engineering work (amongst other bulk loads) that the hours would involve many nights and weekends hence the higher pay rate. Don't get me wrong...

That sounds like heavy haul pay rate. pretty sure intermodal and heavy haul are on different salaries (intermodal is around 5k less)

That is what the vacances are advertised as so... yes

so many conflicting ideas I think my brain is melting. :| hopefully some clarity in the form of a hr post on this forum may be on its way... (happened on the heavy haul feed)

Eastleigh or Tilbury sound good to me have family in both areas. cheers pacerpilot.

Sorry Nic Nic, nothing in the South West with intermodal. HeavyHaul would be your best bet but we've taken on a lot of trainee drivers and I don't know if they'll take on any more. Ok thanks for the heads up. I had my application in within an hour of the website working so it's up to the...

so no jobs in the south west?

Cheers guys the address given on the fl website is south liberty street which joins the a38 (known as Bridgwater rd) maybe a glimmer there lol. but in all seriousness need to get the application Web page open before any of this comes into play...

Cheers Ollie I think I shall have a punt on the Bristol depot. will probably be too far as I live in Bridgwater but nothing ventured nothing gained.

Does anyone know what fairway in Taunton is used for? Is it just a siding for the ballast wagons from Westbury or is there more to it than that?

For anyone interested this vacancy has been open since August last yr. I have no idea where exactly it is based (at a guess l would think either Bristol, Taunton, Plymouth or Exeter) :roll:http://www.colasrail.co.uk/careers/job_vacancies/

Been a while since this thread has seen any activity sooo let's see if we can get it going again. I can imagine that driving a freight train around London could be quite frustrating during the day is it any better at night? --- old post above --- --- new post below --- whoops just seen that it...

Short answer no..... The three jobs you have listed are completely different to each other (I have never heard of the third one as a job title). I am going to be brutally honest here, if you are considered good enough to make it through the hr sift and make it to the testing stage you will be...

The wild card eh lol, they must see something in you for you to get to the stage you have. I was offered the job yesterday for groundstaff pending the medical I now need to do, it only took 6 days for them to get back to me which I thought was pretty quick compared to what I have heard from...
