Don’t forget that a significant number (maybe all) of West Yorkshire (based Kirkgate now) do Carlisle, as do the Newcastle lot across the Tyne Valley. Warrington go all the way to Scotland on Mail / containers. Carlisle is looking ever obsolescent.
Should be on the original advert or any correspondence you’ve had since.
Have you not had any correspondence from them then?
Because they don’t have much work there, they only sign mossend to Warrington , odd one signs Tyne valley, gsw , they only do s&c to Kirby thore, and very few sign those last ones I have mentioned. Plus I know as most vacancies have been filled .
But strangely they advertised in this thread’s campaign for Carlisle and they have readvertised again with one open currently.
Probably worth a follow up just in case they are expecting you and meant to send you the application pack
The fact that I did follow up 10 days ago, and still no response, is a concern. I have checked my junk mail folder daily too - as things can land in there from time to time.
In my fairly limited experience I’d say that railway recruitment teams seem to be small, and often it seems it’s one person dealing with a particular job. One job I’d applied for, the recruiter was part time so would only pick up and reply certain days of the week. Most companies I find only reply or contact you when they want something or when it suits them to do so, I think they’re bombarded with so many people wanting continued updates on their application that they ignore emails unless it is someone they need to contact at that time.
