Now I'm no expert, but having successfully navigated this process you'll see I started my comment with 'if you've only had 1 interview' and if you had only had 1 interview there would be another to come. Sorry for trying to help mate ;)

Hi Fraser In my experience they will not expect you to know specifics about the job in any great detail ( Particularly if you are from outside the rail industry as I was). With the interview in mind your time would be better spent getting examples ready of things you have done in the past...

"I think that given my achievements so far in my present job, I may have come across as being someone that may well struggle to start at the bottom in another trade. This of course isnt the case, yet I feel this is maybe the perception I may have encouraged." Good Morning Lanc, I wouldn't...

Certainly for your classroom based learning which is for the 1st few months you will need to have 100% attendance as I'm sure you realise the entire intake of trainees will not sit around for a week til you return from holiday and the schedule is such with PTS and other 'ticks in boxes' to be...
