There might be some movement from the Recruitment team in the coming months for both the most recent campaign and the previous campaign (which was the one I applied for).
I just got a call for a 18 Jan 2027 course start date. Anyone else?
Hopefully not too long. I'm guessing OOC has more vacant spots, seeing as the latest advert was hiring for OOC only. Maybe contact recruitment to find out?
I was in the pool from around Feb also.
Just wondering if anyone else from the 1156 Old Oak Common Trainee Driver recruitment has had any recent movement?
I’ve completed both OPC stages and have now passed Stage 2/MMI, and I’m currently waiting to hear from GTS regarding next steps.
Most of the recent discussion seems to be from the earlier Abbey Wood recruitment, so I was curious whether anyone else from the 1156 campaign is at a similar stage or has heard anything about the next stage/DMI.
Hey everyone, I applied on 19th June for the trainee train driver 1156 for OOC with GTS, Elizabeth line. I still have not received any emails yet from them, so was wondering if anyone has heard from GTS after having done the SJT and having applied that late just like I did. I also did not received any rejection email, which is probably a good sign (?). Hope someone can help
