Yes I was aware of this! However there isn't a lot of choice in Devon and Cornwall! I wish I had applied for the Plymouth depot now, as thats where I live!
I only applied to Exeter as I was told they have a greater turnover of drivers & you would have a better chance of getting in! Guess...
I had my DMI for Exeter last week and was informed yesterday that I was unsuccessful on this occasion! to say that I'm disappointed would be a major understatement!!! But I was told at the interview that GWR had no more courses booked before spring 2021!
So now I have to wait another 6 months...

Hi Daddy_Badger, me too I finally got my result yesterday as well! the system says I failed the CBI interview! absolutely gutted by this result!:cry:
I took my stage 1 last October and stage 2 on March 22nd. I have emailed and tried to phone for results without any success! I would like some...
Hi Ayamonte, I originally applied for Bristol and all those that did part 1 in October didn't hear anything until March, this was apparently due to a shortage of training staff! we were told at stage 2 that things were now sorted and that we would hear within a couple of weeks at the most! This...
Hi Daddy Badger,
I also did my stage 1 back in October 15th in Newport, then didn't hear anything until being asked to take my stage 2 on 22nd March in Newport, only to be told that things will progress much faster now and that I should hear within a week or two! Like you my current status...
Hi Wanabedriver, thanks for the reply, I applied to Bristol and did both assessment days at Newport! just have to keep waiting until they contact me I guess! Good luck with your course! WMG75
Hi wanabedriver, Congratulations! when did you sit your stage two and which station did you apply for? I sat my stage 2 in Newport on the 22nd March and my status still says invited to assessment! :(
They did say that we would hear a lot quicker this time as the next course was going to start...
Hi Bandit, Thanks for the enquiry; I've been back to Newport today and passed the reaction test with a "very good Pass" score! very pleased, Now waiting for the CBI results next week!! I did feel that the interview went fairly well and wasn't as hard as I expected!! which I think are all good...
Hi Guys,
Sorry for the misunderstanding, I'm glad we have cleared that up! I really do appreciate the time and effort that you all put into this forum as do many others.
I can completely understand that it must be frustrating when new members keep asking the same questions over and over...
Hi LCC106,
Thanks for the reply, I do appreciate the time and effort that most of you put into this forum, As I said, I wasn't asking for insider information! I was just looking for a little advice and reassurance as to what to expect.
I have had a career in the police force and now in...
I was mearly asking the same question that Carlejo originally asked at the start of this thread! I didn't expect insider knowledge & I wasn't expecting such a sharp and negative response from some of the other members!
I see nothing wrong with asking for advice and would happily pass info on...
Hi Carlejo,
I have my interview next week; could you give us an idea of what the questions were? are the the ones that are listed earlier in this post? I know its a bit of a cheek but any info is a great help at this stage!!! Good luck with your results, hopefully we might be on the same...
