Visit your nearest depot and explain that you are going for interview and need some help, they will be great with you. Learn what routes are run from the depot you are interviewing for, do some research on the company (name of the chief exec./ turnover/ how many stations they run etc.) They will...

Cheers hiall, looking forward to getting my nose stuck in the 'rule book'.

Cheers sheriff fatman :wink:

You should not doubt that I will be totally professional in my approach to my job, as I was in my last job and as I was in my research, exams and application of my new job. I will also be 100% commited to my new employer and profession and will strive to be the best at what I do...

If you would love to be a driver what is stopping you? Is it that you can't quite make the grade? Where else should I look for £35k per year for a 35 hour week? Sorry I don't share your obsession with trains but, hey ho! each to their own. Where do you get off telling people what they...

Cheers hiall for the reassurance. Lengthman, look forward to meeting you on the 25th.

Cheers Gazza, I can only asume they are waiting on references then. Maybe give it to the start of next week and drop Sandra an e-mail.

I'm starting to panic again. Why have they not given me a start date :shock:

Hi Lengthman, No, the last thing I received was the conditional offer. I know the medical went fine and that the references have been sent out. How up to date is your info? the last contact I had was 15th March when there was still no confirmed start date. I thought the date you have...

Good man, passed my medical today.

Got the call :D As long as all goes well with the medical and references I'm in. Course starts end of April/beginning of May.

Cheers Hoyerman, good that guys like you are taking the time to come on and post any info you have. Out of interest does anyone know the national pass rate for the assesments?

That looks like the end of the road for me and all other external applicants sitting on the waiting list then:( You would think they would at least have the decency to let you know when you ask, rather than just keep you wondering if and when you are getting a start.

Was it D.I. Burke out of Taggart?:lol: Looks like January and February are out of the question, if you get anymore up to date info let us know, will you?

Quality

Where did your info come from energol, I hope you are right, but the official line is that there is no news on future training.
