Derby have non electrical background ECRO's. York is mostly ex overhead line and Ex plant and distribution. Few S&T. I was a signaller before i joined the ECR.

Can someone remind me how long it is after gaining a new job at a higher grade it is they have to pay you at your new grade if you've not been released yet?
How did you find the week 6? What was the content like? We have week 6 next week and I'm struggling to find a way to revise that works for me effectively
We are in york. We are in the park inn but from week 3 middletons and elmbank. Seem to be using different hotels at the moment. Couple of guys in random ones alone. It'd basically what's available at the time.
IST is hard. I won't lie. You have to put the extra effort in outside class times to...
I imagine much like the ist group I'm in you have been recruited to an area and will be expected to apply for open vacancies in that area (or others) whilst you are studying . As others have said...don't read up. Let them teach you everything you need to know. I'm just about to start my second week
Either way you will have to fess up. They will need to risk asses you using the rigs etc. I don't even think you would get smp. It would be maternity allowance. Best idea is to talk to the lom. Hopefully the won't recind the offer as they are big champions for equality and diversity
I would guess that like most places you would need to be employed for 26 weeks prior to your 25th week of pregnancy. Speak to your lom they may be able to find something office based until you can return to duty. Though be prepared to only get maternity allowance which isn't great
No no email with local vacancies I've been told I can't apply for anything until I start. Gainsborough was offered up to apply for but I asked around and it doesn't seem a popular box so I didn't bother. I guess I'll see you tomorrow!
Just got my reservations through for IST in york starting the 4th staying at the park Excited to get going now,but also applying for an actual box too for a bit of peace of mind
Yeah not for me. 12 hours suits me better. We shall see. Seems to be only grade 2 jobs local to Sheffield available at the moment in boxes that nobody seems to want like wooley and Gainsborough
I guess like me has been recruited by the recruitment drive and since non of us have a box to go to and are expected to apply while training is now panicking about what will be available come that time.

All depends on what's available to apply for when we finish school. I assume you...
Odd isn't it. The onboarding process has been fairly disjointed I've found. Info not great. Finally had an answer to my various questions this week so my mind is a bit more at ease. I sent you a pm but I'm not sure if you can get them yet if your new
