    New Driver Assessments - Beware

    I like that :-) Some "intelligent different" people who invented it, must obviously think that such vital, life tasks as counting lifts and circling curry houses highlight aptitudes of aspiring trainee train drivers. Having spoken to the one of the assessors, their point of view is pretty much...

    London Midland Trainee Driver Worcester

    Got exactly same message :-) Strange that, especially all dates were preciselly set. Makes me wonder: a) How many people applied? It is not particulary populated area. B) How many vacancies are there?

    It was like a Bible to me, during preparation. Some of the info is irrelevant now (new selection process in place). However the interview guide, questions, advices etc. I found very useful.

    I wish you all the best. Also I don't quite agree on hearing requirements. Why is it not treated same as vision, where you need to meet criteria with both unaided and aided eyes. In this day and age with digital hearing aid more sophisticated than ever TOC or RSSB should review their...
