    The GTR talent pool.

    Applied in Feb, assessments in April, DMI 1st June and medical 2 weeks later. For selfish reasons I hope they allocate courses based on application date but I don't think they will, I think it'll be based on interview passes.

    Railway Pension Scheme

    Hi, I'm in a similar position where I will hopefully be starting with a TOC in the next couple of months but I've not been able to get any info on the pension. I've now got a rough idea as to what this will cost me per month but does anyone know roughly what someone will get out of it at the...

    GTR recruiting again

    I had a similar letter as did someone else I know who has also got through the medical. I'm remaining optimistic and I'm guessing that they've had enough of people phoning for an update so they sent the letter to try and stop all the calls and emails. I've applied for Bedford and the last...

    The GTR talent pool.

    Hi, I've passed everything and am in a similar position where I'm waiting for a start date for the Bedford depot. Passed my manager interview 1st June and the medical two weeks later. Out of the above names, who is going to which depot? Cheers

    DM Interview - Thameslink

    Is anyone able to shed any light on the pay structure for me. I know that the starting wage is £24,000 and ends up at a little over £47,000 but I've been told that it goes up during the training. Is this right and does anyone know by how much and at what points? Thanks

    WAFV Vigilance and ATAVT Perception Tests

    Hi Chrissyfog, I'm assuming you're going to London for your assessments which will be carried out by the OPC? Don't be like me and think you'll be done by lunch time, you complete the assessments in stages and then they mark each stage and let you know how you got on. If successful you...

    WAFV Vigilance and ATAVT Perception Tests

    One last question about the ATAVT test. Are the pictures similar to those on the youtube clip or are they pictures of UK roads?

    Thameslink Trainee Vacancies

    Thanks guys, I'm trying not to get too nervous but easier said than done. By no means am I confident about the MMI but I'm lucky in that my job has given me plenty of experience and hopefully some good examples. Time will tell I suppose. Thanks again.

    Thameslink Trainee Vacancies

    Morning everyone, I've got my stage 2 assessments for GTR this coming Friday in Watford, am concerned about the ATAVT test more than any of the others. I've read on other threads that very few fail this part but looking at the you tube clip it seems the hardest part. How did everyone find...

    WAFV Vigilance and ATAVT Perception Tests

    Thanks for the replies, it's interesting how different people find different parts of the tests harder, just goes to show that everyone has different skills and abilities. On the 2hand coordination test, is it right that if you were to let go of the joysticks the cursor would return to the...

    WAFV Vigilance and ATAVT Perception Tests

    Hi there. For those of you that completed stage 2, what was the hardest bit in your opinion? I've got mine this coming Friday and I'm worried about the ATAVT test. I'm not confident about the rest but less worried. Some have commented that they don't know of anyone that failed that part...
