What depot did you apply for? I wouldn't count yourself out just yet. If it's a depot no one's heard back from yet you might still have a chance as it does seem like I said that they're working through it depot by depot

It was a friend… and Birmingham. But people seem to have heard today. Says in process

On the phone they did say they’ve had over 2000 people apply just for Birmingham and had numerous interview days over about a week timeframe, I would expect it’ll still take a few days to get out to everyone who’s been successful

Anyone else heard?

I've only had the process change to assessment but I've not actually heard anything from them via phone/email

Hopefully I'm in no rush I know it's just a talent pool and there's heeps of applicants to get through.
I'm just glad it's changed status tbh, the most nerve racking bit is between applications and getting through to assessment/interview

I thought everyone would hear on one day it’ll probably take a few more days

It’ll be depot dependent too, not all DM will have the same timeframes.

Some people from Birmingham have heard but I think there’s still more to be reached.

I was told it was narrowed down to 10 interviews for 2 initial course places at Cambridge, looks like you've got your interview coming Plenty of info on here for your interview/assessment.

They had over 2000 applicants for Birmingham, so there's almost definitely more people to be reached out to. There's only so many hours in a day etc etc

Mine still says 'application in progress' on birmingham, derby and leicester? Hopefully this doesn't mean bad news

Someone told me anyone still in progress will get an interview at some point. Don’t know how true it is.

I tried getting another week but I think they're only doing them that specific week so now I'm revolving work around it.
Fingers crossed for you that it goes well. Not done a driver manager interview yet
