Attended FGW Assessment Centre - Waiting for news

[Notrevel93]

Hi, all.

Sorry if this topic has come up already. I attended an assessment centre last Wednesday for a job with First Great Western for night shift carriage cleaner and shunter. The First representative at the assessment said that we would know the results by Friday. Wether or not she meant the Friday just gone or this Friday coming up, I don't know.

I'm just wondering if anybody else has had this sort of experience and if they have, how long would it be until I find out the results?

Cheers.

I had a telephone interview with FGW and was told pretty much the same thing that I would hear by Friday. I did, about 3 weeks later....

I attended the Assessment centre a few weeks ago for Conductor tests. We were told by the administrator that those who were unsuccessful would be informed soon after, which proved to be the case with me.
So maybe no news is good news.

they pretty much wanted to know about my experience with safety, regulations, angry customers, working under pressure etc.
