You can't take the drivers course off your own back as far as I'm aware, you have to do it through a TOC, as for the assessment centre I have heard someone on here say somewhere along the line that you can take the actual psychometric tests but unfortunately I wouldn't know where to tell you to...

What happened in the end? Did you pass your medical?

Hopefully you get something soon then! :)

Anyone in the talent pool for this?

So sorry to hear that mate :/ try and keep your chin up and keep on trying! You will get there! :)

Start with the sticky "becoming a train driver" at the top of the thread page, then you could just go into other threads like the "freightliner graduate scheme" thread, there's a lot of info about the process in there that will help you out :)

Good luck with your assessments tomorrow, I hope it all goes well for you and any others in the process! :)

Extremely good luck to everyone that has interviews today, let us all know how you get on, I will be posting my experience later on and hopefully it's a good one!

When I went this time last year it was a paper test, they were all paper tests other than the SJE and the hand coordination test

I'd jump at the chance for minimum wage and struggle!

It has since been sorted, I initially rang southeastern careers and the woman said they do not accept any assessments from other companies at all, so since reading a reply to my post on here I sent them an email asking the same question, I got a reply saying that my assessments are accepted and...

I received this email then a couple of hours later had a mother one inviting me for assessments so I would just hold out a bit and don't worry too much! :)

Quick question if anyone knows, I have passed all the driver assessments with emt this time last year and south eastern have said they don't accept them from any other companies, if I failed the assessments with south eastern (which are the same as what I have already done) are the ones I passed...

Good :) I'm going on the 15th, bit gutted that they don't accept assessments from other toc's as I've passed them all with a different one this time last year :/

Anyone else received an email from south eastern today being invited to assessments?

No I didn't, I rang to make sure I'd met the deadline and I had (just) they did say be patient as it takes time which if you've applied for a trainee driver role before you already know, when I applied for emt last year I didn't hear anything within the 2 week rule so I forgot all about it, then...

Unfortunately nothing for me yet, debating giving them a ring to see if there's any progress

I have recently spoken to SWT and they have invited me to assessments and interview next Friday and also a walk around for the MB3 Maintenance role I spoke to you about. I don't suppose you know anyone that's been through the interview do you? There is very, very limited information on the Web...

Thanks for getting in touch, I will organise a day with swt to come and have a look around, it sounds like a great job and a good place to work. I enjoy the problem solving and mechanical side to things so it sound like a brilliant opportunity.
