I've now had a successful DMI and passed all assessments/MMI. Northern emailed me yesterday and confirmed I had passed all stages, but said I was now an 'on hold' candidate, waiting to be allocated to a course. The email said they couldn't tell me at what time this would be. Does anyone have...

Well done again RSBN! Bet you can't wait to start. I passed my assessment day in Doncaster two days ago following successful DMI for Darlington trainee driver. Had an email from Northern yesterday to say I have been successful but that my application is 'on hold' until a course is...

Great info for lots of us! Thanks

I haven't had a rejection... not sure about others. Have you done the assessment centre?

Do you mean from the initial interview or from the assessment centre?

Excellent! You've given an external some hope! Thanks.

No idea I'm afraid... I'd love to know how many externals they've put through to assessments if that's true though!

Thank you. Some good inside knowledge there!! :cool::cool:

Really?! You'd have thought they would go on whoever had the highest overall score. Thanks for the info anyway :)

A lot of the online application forms specify that at the time of applying, you must live within the 45 minute distance. So it might be impossible to get through that initial sift if your address on the application form isn't 45 minutes or less from the advertised depot. Just making assumptions...

Anyone any idea what proportion of those interviewed are likely to be put through to the assessment centre if there are just 6 jobs going? Thank you in advance
