EMR - Trainee Train Drivers - Recruitment Discussion

[mr_ixolite]

It was from EMR. Reported it!

If that email to emr didn't at least hint at job offers and how they may relate to sudden attacks of amnesia regarding gdpr breaches and the national press then I'm very disappointed in you

I’m also in the Kettering talent pool, since January this year. Last I heard (possibly on this thread) was that they were oversubscribed.

I’m working on the assumption that my 2 years might come and go without a job offer. If I get a call then that will come as a pleasant surprise.

Still in the Kettering talent pool? I'm in the same position from 2024, just checking if you've heard anything

Yes sir

East Mids don’t have a depot at Euston? Please double check you’ve not crossed wires.

Apologies. Overlooked that. St Pancras

Found out I failed depot driver role. They said they’ll hold my details for the next 6 months in case there’s further assessments. Gutted.

Unlucky mate. What stage did you fail at? Same for me at the online assessment stage for mainline driver role

That arctic shores bit. Such a rubbish way of assessing people. Got 3/4, 4/4 and 4/4 so it wasn’t an awful score either.

I got 4/4 in all and still didn’t get through. Probably among the lowest scorers in that category.

Be good to know what they base it off. Rough you got 4 on all and still didn’t put you through

I also got 4/4 on all of them. Would like to see a more comprehensive breakdown of how they score them to try and understand where o went wrong and how to improve my chances for next time.

I got turned down with a decent arctic shores score AND a valid opc pass already in place, so lord knows what they are looking for, it's basically a lottery

Did you get any feedback as to why you were turned down, I know a few people who applied for this and just got told ‘No.’ with no feedback or reason why, you’d think they’d at least give a reason, even if it’s just ‘too many applicants’

Nothing, just a standard "Thanks for your application / unfortunately we won't be interviewing you" email

 

[Ryanman]

Does anyone know if they just base it off the arctic shores assessment or even consider the CV?

Has anyone attended the assessment day/mmi for emr recently?
