Well done on passing your MMI! I'm in the same boat as you I failed 4 years ago and have got it coming up again (once I resit my assessment day) so seeing this post and seeing this update has put me at ease as I like you have been realy nervous about it. I do think it's a help knowing what your...

Hi all, been a keen train sim player for many years, would anyone have route maps (with speed limits and stations) for London to Brighton mainline? looking to make my gaming as immersive as possible by removing all hud so i need some speed limits etc to help my route learning. i found some on...

I have my MMI coming up (no date yet) this is my second attempt. First time 4 years ago we got given the MMI question sheets at the assessment day so had time between the assessments and the MMI to practice. This time I have bypassed the assessment day as its still within 5 years, will I get a...

class 37?

Ah okay thabkyou I got told in my line manager interview last week as I'm Horsham il be Brighton or Barnham, likely Barnham is my best bet so by sounds of it Barnham has the space for a new load of trainees soon

How many trainees are in each class? I'm hoping to be in one of these courses!

Of course you are so right, I realise that was a silly thing to ask I should focus on the MMI. I got the news today that I passed the first interview so I have got through to the MMI again. :)

Hi all. Currently on 2nd try for a trainee driver role qith southern (will likely be based Barnham or Brighton) is there anyway I can access route maps so I can study speed limits etc whilst I wait. Feel like I could be doing something productive whilst I'm in the process again.

Yeah so when I look back my assessment day was Oct 30th 2019 so 5 years yesterday... so I was thinking I'd be invited to do them again but today I got the interview email and last time this interview was after I passed the assessment day so I'm guess they have allowed a few days? That's why I'm...

Hi all I'm in for interview next week, this is my second time applying after failing MMI in esrly 2020. Been in pending application for round 2 since. I seemed to have skipped the assessment day though as last time this interview was after the assessment day. Will I get fresh MMI paperwork at...

Good morning all I applied for a trainee train driver role in 2019 and got through to the MMI and ultimately failed that interview due to lack of structure on one of my answers. I re applied again maybe a year or 2 ago, and it's been just pending for all that time but I have now just done the...

Yeah I mean I got a reply from a human (not an automated response) My last email in June of last year was "we can reassure you that your application is still being considered, we are trying hard to shortlist everyone to attend a assessment center. We also want to make you aware we will soon be...

To clarify. (Sorry I have just this morning emailed HR again so I might have missed some details off this post) I applied in 2020, did all the tests etc and failed my face to face MMI, they emailed me and said after 6 months I can reapply, 6 months went and as soon as I could reapply I did. I...

Thanks for the reply. I have contacted HR directly various times over the last few years and every time they specifically said to me DO NOT apply for other roles, my application will be put foward automatically when a new intake comes up. That's why I have never done anything else, plus I have...

Good morning all I applied for trainee train driver back in early 2020. Passed all the assessments online, assessment day in Croydon, unfortunately I failed my multimodal interview (interview was with a station manager) so I waited the 6 months and re-applied. Since reapplying in lasted 2020...

Hi everyone im new here I have been looking through a few posts over the last few days. I am applying for a trainee driver roll for Southern Rail (Govia Thameslink) I wondered is anyone could give me a brief idea of what the day to day routine is for a trainee and for a qualified driver. So...
