    Hi Dan , Funny enough it was Laura who made the mistake in the first place although she sounded genuinely upset she had made the error. It's the assessment day i'm more concerned about as that could happen again and i wouldn't want anyone to go through that. Have you had a date for a medical...

    NorthernRail Trainee drivers 2013

    Beardfoot, That's what HR told me , it is in fact a new addition to the application but gets added to all current applications. Maybe someone who got through to interview could check their application and confirm they also have this as incomplete . Do you live further than an hour away ...

    Voluntry work, dont do it!!

    I have to agree with Geeztronic . I have some sympathy for the OP but unfortunately in the present economic climate we can't all pick and chose our jobs. We sometimes have to do things we don't like or want to do to progress to the next stage. I for example had an excellent well paid...

    England V Germany

    Oh forget it , obviously a humourless day today. I do indeed have an opinion on the England situation . The players are a bunch of over paid prima donnas who shouldn't even be getting paid for representing their country , the honour should be enough. It is only going to get worse unless...
