Depot driver job

[Bert and Ernie]

Does anyone know if the physcometric assessments for a depot driver job are the same for mainline driving?

Or do they have different grades, and pass rates

Thanks

Hi there, as far as I am aware generally the answer is yes though not always, simply up to the TOC or FOC.

It's very strange I recently was told that I have passed the physcometric tests by northern for depot driver job

But I have just been rejected by tpe apparently for my physcometrics

So I'm just a bit confused

Don't think Northern depot driver jobs are tested to mainline standard mate. At GA, depot to mainline is natural progression so you are tested to mainline standard.

But I was on the same testing day as the mainline drivers, and did exactly the same tests as the mainline drivers did

Northern Depot Drivers are tested to mainline standard at the phycho tests and medicals. I wouldn't be suprised if all DDs across the country are. If a Northern M DD wants to go mainline it is just a case of passing a 30 minute corporate Interview and thats it.
