    Yes potentially, mine was last year between April and June. Pretty sure it hasn't changed since then. Yeah, I'm the same, I was dreading it. And relieved when I was told a face to face interview.

    Mine was similar, but the assessment centre was the face to face interview. No actual assessment centre. And I've got mine after being a reserve candidate for 6 months.

    Sent you a private message. 1718783295 Well that's good news. Fingers crossed you get a phone call sooner rather than later. I went back a few pages, and read that someone was told they were unsuccessful and put on the reserve list on a Thursday. They then got a phone call on the Friday...

    Yes trying to, It was the initial email, caught me off guard. Still pleased about the reserve list though. I did search the thread and found quite a few people had been offered places after being on the reserve list. (Probably just jinxed myself) How long have you been on the list?

    Yeah I think it went okay. Didn't ask about the life saving rules and they only asked about half of the NTS too. They did ask about notice period, which could be a good sign. They did take the time to answer my questions even after the interview ran over too. That could just be procedure...

    Had my face to face interview today. I think it went okay, it went over the allotted time. (Not sure if that's good or bad) I was able to answer all the questions. Just hoping I answered them enough to show my knowledge of the role and Network Rail. I was told I should hear by next Friday. I've...
