I had this worry when I became a train driver nearly 3 years ago for something I did when 19. It's quite clear, on the application they will ask for any unspent convictions. Yours is spent so do not declare anything unnecessarily, you're not telling any lies. In regards to rehabilitation of...

Yeah its at Kings Cross. Might go and get a hearing test done tomorrow to try and put my mind at rest.

When I applied it was advertised as a mainline job but has since changed to a depot job which is disappointing. Also it’s now going to be an hour away from where I applied but even though I would still accept if offered the position.

I asked how many places were left and was told 3. Think I was the last candidate to be interviewed as well. My interview was very different to you guys, a very informal chatty interview and glad I did some company research because that did come up.

J, Thanks for the information you gave earlier about the sort of criteria based issues that might come up. Can you remember any specific questions that arose? Any help or information is greatly appriciated. I have my interview tomorrow. Andy

Thanks, very nice to know. David when is your managers interview? Mine is on the 3rd of Jan.

Can you remember what they are? I wish I had written them down when I was at Stratford. I remember seeing 5 on the wall. Only one I can remember is punctuality. Cant find them on the website. Thanks for any help.

It took me 5 months after applying to get invited to the assessment!

No afternoon. She was running about an hour and a half late. Trying to do some preperation for the next interview but seems to be very mixed questions from what people have written. Some saying its criteria based again others saying its a more informal chat! :-?
