Hi all, i did the assessment with lewis today, not sure what you thought lewis but found the group exercise hard to judge! I guess you need to lead but not be overbearing which is a very thin line by all accounts in trying to be hears but not taking control! Aside from that I actually enjoyed...

Hey Lewis, That was what they said to me when i questioned about the talent pool and dates etc they did say it wasn't set in stone as i had the 5th march in my email as well, but they said it will be within those dates. I interviewed with the conductor manager and i think a train manager from...

How do you think you got on @LS.CYMRU? I did mine about an hour ago...had Paul and Alan i believe....they gave nothing away! And the same, im normally fairly indifferent, but i think because i really want this one its made me really nervous. Im really not sure how i did, answered some OK...

Hi all, apologies for radio silence, have been on nights for the last week. Thanks @LS.CYMRU for the heads up on responding to the email I used to work in recruitment and most telephone interviews were more about sussing out how well you were able to communicate, how you came across and how...

Thanks tiptoptaff... As a wearer of glasses it did make me wonder if it would be an issue for me going for any of these positions. I think il save any questions from here going forward! And i have just received an email to say i successfully passed the assessment stage and that my telephone...

@craigybagel @TeaTrain that all sounds positive! I just wanted an idea of how it worked or what i could expect if successful. If i make it through to the talent pool id be incredibly happy with that...better than not making it that far! :smile: thanks for the advice and feedback, iv been reading...

Thats great news! I thought the general ability test was farely straight forward, i focused on looking at numeric tests before hand but the test itself was a mixture and nowhere near as difficult as the practise ones id been doing. Good luck with it and the same to you - will keep you posted on...

Sorry to interrupt on this thread, i hope you dont mind i have just applied for the Cardiff Trainee Conductor vacancy and noticed you said its for a talent pool...can i just how that tends to work? If successful in the process does that mean you definitely have a job? Or is it a case of waiting...
