Hi everyone, I have got my second assessment centre (stage 2) next Friday at the OPC for Avanti (Euston depot). I have already completed all my assessments and passed them at the enhanced standard with another TOC in January. I didn't do the VSE or the MMI/CBI though.
If any one has sat the VSE and CBI with Avanti, any advice on what sorts of questions are asked and any helpfull tips and advice for the VSE and CBI will be greatly appreciated.
if anyone wants advice on any of the other assessments including DFFT, dm me.

Thanks good luck as well only thing I'm nervous about is TRP 2 I managed to complete 26 out of 43 so hopefully that's enough with good accuracy
RyanGosling
Member
That's the same thing I'm nervous about, no clue what the passing mark is but I know you're not expected to finish all 43. TRP 1 was easier than expected in my opinion though

Presume I’m not the only polmadie waiting?
Heard few weeks back with the ….recruiting all year….
Expect to be in it for the long haul but hopefully worth it.

Please can you explain what sort of question were there , how should I practice for that
No mate I’m the same. What will be will be as they say

I’d say the training material they send in the email is enough to go off tbh. I got some practice in on the group bourdon a couple nights before and I found that helped me a lot
An email just came through this morning about still holding the applications in the talent pool and no further update. Definitely in it for the long haul by the looks of it!

Got the same email this morning, if we’re held in the talent pool I take that means we must have passed first set of tests.

Anyone else in the same boat? Liverpool applicant was successful after vse and m7. Email said we will be in touch within 4 weeks as we don't have any dates for assessment centres yet. Today is 4 weeks. Still nothing ....
did the m7 a week after you have heard nothing back also
