I applied at the beginning of December last year. I think applications closed on 6th December 2013. Had contract through which I am returning this weekend. References sent back and I have my induction to start on 7th January. 1 year down and finally in! Cannot wait to start my career. So happy...
I applied in early December last year for trainee train driver position for FCC. Did my first stage assessments in January, followed by second stage a few weeks later. Final interview around 10th March. Only just heard a couple of weeks ago that I have been offered to start at Bedford on 7th...
Yeah mate. Getting my new date in the next few days so will be all good!
Yeah let me know how it goes mate. If we both go OK, will be seeing you in January! :)
As long as you have an answer that relates to it and have a well constructed response for it when you get to the interview, you will be fine. I sat down every evening for around a week before just going through scenarios that I had been in etc and found that it really helped and kept me calm in...
James, have you been offered Bedford for January 7th?
I have that offer but just waiting on my medical. Was supposed to have it last week but didn't receive the paperwork so got a phone call asking why I wasn't there for me to then tell them that I didn't know about it. Should find out my...
I did the same as you on this one.
I was looking to make sure they were plumbers but as previously said, all plumbers would be together anyway and I quickly realised this so quickly went through and circled all the double symbols.
You will be fine next time.
Got a call from GTR today.
My medical was supposed to be this morning but all paperwork was sent to an old address of mine. My own fault. Now just waiting for my new date for medical which I suppose will be next week or the following.
Almost there :D
I did my final interview in March.
Got a phone call from recruitment last week and have been given a start date of 7th January. Just waiting on my medical date at the moment.
I am going to be based in Bedford but they asked whether I wanted Bedford or Blackfriars so chose Bedford.
Got mine coming up to mate. Is that at Kings Cross area?
A friend of mine just qualified and said that it is pretty much alcohol/drugs test, ECG, hearing test, eyesight test, blood pressure tests, balance/mobility tests.
Would like to know if anyone else knows anything though!
I didn't get an email regarding the talent pool moving across. I really hope we find out what is happening soon. The stress and effort from the process of getting through everything is worthy of at least being given some type of information!
Yeah got told I was put into a talent pool back in March when I passed the interview. Hope it doesn't increase the waiting time. Hope you did well in your interview mate!
Hi,
Not been on here for a while so not sure whether this situation has been discussed.
Did my full application process and passed my final interview in March this year. Got an email the other day about FCC losing the franchise and will be in contact. Still have had no contact as to what...
