As long as everyone who took part communicated with everyone in group, weren't too outspoken, put forward ideas then you'll pass it. That's the time when clipboards come out and they watch you problem solve.

I heard from a current Northern conductor when the advert first went up they ere recruiting straight away for the Doncaster positions and the talent pool for Sheffield vacancy. So you were always going to be in talent pool if accepted. Guy I knew on last intake was in talent pool for about 6...
