Can I ask - if a shift is cancelled for example due to cancellations or engineering work (or any other circumstance)….are you still paid for that shift? Is anything deducted from your salary ?
I think it may just be a website glitch on the status page? Some people have stage 1 and some have stage 2, yet no one has actually been to the assessments yet. So whilst the website seems to reflect different stages, in reality we may all be in the same place? The confirmation email I received...
Good Morning, I’ve had it and completed it. Deadline was today, so made sure I submitted within plenty of time. I practiced as much as I could, in between current work and home commitments. Hoping for the best and good luck to all.
I am told that I am to expect the VSE link tomorrow and have until 1st November to complete. They've said to keep an eye on junk folder within emails, so I would recommend anyone on here to keep an eye in that folder if you're waiting for the link.
Hi,
I’ve received an email notifying me of VSE. But I’m still waiting for the OPC email to instruct me on what to do..:this was for Birmingham. I’ve only got the VSE notification today.
The deadline for completion is 1st November, so the OPC need to be speedy with sending the details through.
Hi Guys,
I just applied as well, fingers crossed for everyone who has submitted an application so far. I have a few observations from reading the Chiltern vacancy details, I was wondering if anyone could offer some comment, maybe someone who has recently been through the process?

I know this is a while away for me yet, but preparation is key and I have never been through the process before. Can anyone who has gone through the DMI and MMI, please give me a breakdown of what they both are? What's the layout / format of them, any tips? What's the difference between the two...
I really hope you do not need to be interviewed again, it seems like a very unorthodox process if you have to be interviewed twice, that just adds to your workload!
Having said that, I applied at the same time as you, Birmingham depot. I haven't been given an assessment centre yet, I still...
Hi All,
I applied for New Street / Snow Hill and am yet to go the first stage assessments. Having spoken to Starman already, I am hoping that we are all progressed within 2018, it is a long waiting game and a very anxious one, considering we are not sure what will happen. We have all worked...
Hi Starman,
I also remain optimistic, I am hoping they do need require new drivers, for many of us it is our ambitions. I will be looking forward to hear if anyone would shed some light on the new investment plans. :)
Hi All,
I applied in 2015 for Birmingham and I am still on the waiting list for my first assessment. I emailed a few days ago and LM confirmed my details remain on their pipeline and they have no more assessments for 2017, the next will be 2018 but they are unable to state when they will be.
I...
