Ok, I do have the first form but not the other one. I'm sure I'll get one later if I need one. Thanks anyway and hope it goes well for you.

Johncleesefan,
Thanks. I was kind of thinking to do the same and see what I find out when I start. There's no obligation to complete it anyway and I can always complete one in the future if necessary.

Can anybody advise if the >48hr working opt out form is relevant to drivers or not? I've been advised it doesn't apply. Thank you

Murrchine,
Just had joining instructions sent to me for Southern. As they are also part of GTR I would assume we would get similar stuff. What was your ssp, personal declaration form and starter check list all about? Just wondering if I'm missing anything? Ta

I've been told you'll get one increments during training, one at the end and the final one after your first year.
Let me know if you start for Southern this October as myself and emzy_007 are also on that course?

m25, I passed my medical back in April for Southern. Since then I understand there was a course in April and June. The next one is August. I thought I might get on that one, but having spoken to them last week I'm not on that one either. I've been told the next courses are planned for October...
Em, I tried to use the STAR method on my DMI as much as I could because I think it structures the answer better, but to be honest I think that's more vital with the MMI. They'll probably start with the, 'What do you know about our TOC?' then 'Why do you want to be a driver?' questions before...
The questions will be the same six that you wrote down on your assessment day. I'm assuming yours will be similar to the ones I had. They were;
Done a job under difficult circumstances
A time when you've achieved something
A job where you've had to comply with Rules and Procedures
A time When...
Emzy_007,
Congratulations! Last bit to push for now.
Know your examples inside out and back to front. They only asked mainly around the six but with a few extra ones thrown in. I assume these extras were linked to the CJE,s you answered on your assessment day and were were...
Blimey there are a lot coming up behind me! They weren't wrong when they say it's the biggest recruitment drive in the U.K. Good luck!

Monopolies, I hope you don't mind me asking but, assuming you are also waiting for a trainee driver post, how recently did you have you're medical? Did they offer another date? Just trying to gauge where I sit in it all and whether I'll have just a few months to wait, or months and months...
Dazzayid, Thanks for the insight. Did recruitment tell you this or did you pick it up from colleagues in Southern? I assume if August was offered then you've spoken to HR? I'm an outside applicant so I don't know if it's worth giving them a call so see if I can get an update as I've heard...
Dazzayid,
Have you heard anymore about the June course or a starting date? I passed my medical a couple of weeks ago but have heard nothing. Just wondering where I sit with a likely start date?

Have you had a journey where a emergency happened during it and you had to jump into action? That could tick a few boxes - concentration, dealing with an emergency, problems solving, dealing with other people etc etc. You can make it fancy. And yes you can change your examples. The ones you...
Like you I was told that I would hear within 2 weeks but that it could be longer. However, I received a phone call only 2 days later telling me I'd passed and a date for my MMI was arranged. I had that about 2 weeks later.

I had my DMI at Brighton a month ago and I didn't get asked some of those questions. I wasn't asked the public speaking one or the manager feed back one. Some of the others were also worded slightly differently and I'm sure I didn't have that many either. I think you can guarantee the first...
