Would anticipate that being the case myself, apparently 11 vacancies in the depot I’d applied for according to the CTM who’d interviewed me.

What is it that you’re waiting on? What stage in the process are you at?

The tests on the day are: SCAAT Symbols (there’s a tool for this in the driver assessment thread - Windows only and you can print the sheets to practice also) Reading a short railway based paragraph and answering questions on this, this is timed. Customer service scenarios, they give a...

It’s not there any more, but was there a few days ago. Sent it to friends to apply to. 1706436975 See my reply with screenshot attached. Was on this URL but it’s not there any more. https://www.bluearrow.co.uk/jobs/1706028188-On-Train-Conductor---Glasgow-Queen-Street/

Blue Arrow recruitment agency now doing Conductor recruitment on behalf of ScotRail. ScotRail have just started their recruitment process for Drivers internally so they’ll be very busy and It’ll slow to a crawl, more so than usual. 1706357450 Yes, and medical.

Interviews could be as early as next week. Was at Atrium today for Conductor assessments and they recommended getting started on intereview prep straight away. Are you both “off the street” and applying externally?

Aye, got the practice book mate but it doesn’t have the symbols part that you do for the Guards assessment.

That’s handy to know, will check that out later. Just assumed it was a Bourdon test!

Hi all, Have my assessments for Conductor/Guard next week and looking for an online resource for practicing the SCAAT section. Does anyone either have a package I can download and print with multiple papers, or know the best place to source them? Cheers

Does anyone have any tools for preparing for the SCAAT assessments? Have mines on Tuesday, don’t mind paying for the online packages provided I can print these and do them on paper. Does anyone have anything free?

I assume you’re Scotrail based on your location? Do you have a date for your interview? Also sat my level 1 assessments on Wednesday just passed and found out yesterday that I made the cut. We might even have been in on the same day if you’ve sat them recently.

The dials are similar in composition to the practice material (assuming your TOC sent you this?) only there’s 4 sections instead of 3. All have an arrow pointing at a number and you decide order of priority. It’s straight forward. Do the practice and you’ll breeze thjs. The tones section is...

Does anyone have a rough idea as to what might be seen as an acceptable level of omissions (read: mistakes) on the Group Bourdon test? I’ve been practising for a few days now and doing this on paper, 2 minutes per block and making anywhere between 2-5 mistakes average overall (one night I was...

Any links to these?

Slight thread hijack but does anyone have any tips on how to prepare for the other psychometric tests (I have sheets and sheets of dots to practice these) to try and prepare for the on the day tests?

Looks like mines is on its last legs and need a replacement. Can anyone recommend a strong one? Had mines nearly a year now and it’s done reasonably well but noticing cash intake is on the increase so need something stronger.

They mentioned yesterday that they’re dealing with internals first. May take a while, they’re notoriously slow with the recruitment process normally, add in other things like staff absence, working from home etc. Good luck.

It is what it is, I don’t think I’ll apply again to be honest. Yesterday I gave it a lot of effort and still couldn’t pass, maybe just beyond my abilities. If you’re awaiting an assessment yourself then you’ll do your SCAAT first, a customer service scenario test (rating outcomes on a scale of...

I wasn’t fine. o_O:D Failed, not sure what part though, awaiting feedback.

Aye that’s the difficulty of today. Got into my own head that I’m going to fail and I’ve no confidence. :D
