    Tyne and Wear Metro recruiting new trainee drivers

    I passed the DMI with metro back in November. Didn't get chosen to be sent for psychometrics but told I'd be kept in a pool. Does anyone know how long metro keep people in this pool for before having to start the process over again?

    Application - we are no longer progressing with role

    There's lots of us in the same boat as you with northern. They are just very slow.

    Timing or missing a trick?
