You should contact the recruitment team as if you have enhanced pass you may be able to bypass?
What depot did you applied for??? Do recruitment team reply any earlier experience for you with the recruitment team?When I followed the link this time around it still states Stage 2 but scroll to the bottom and says there are no times available.

Stage 2 has MMI as structured interview probably and DMI later, what i remember when I did it earlier.On the Stage 2 computerised test day, is it just those tests or is there any kind of interview? The practice materials go into interviews but I think that’s later?
Thanks

Is it normal to pass the SJT on the 4th July 26 and still not heard nothing ? Or is there some way to chase it up?

From what i know we are all in the same boat, those who are getting called are those who applied sometimes in November 2025, so i believe thats why they are getting called first, i may be wrong and not sure. i also applied for ipswich mainline but the only message i have gotten so far is the passed email for SJT and now in the pool, valid for 1 year.Is it normal to pass the SJT on the 4th July 26 and still not heard nothing ?

Does anyone know anything different ? please share if you do.
I applied in the recent job post and received the pass SJT in June and called for psychometric. But some people i read earlier post as already completed with psychometric in June,July. So I think they are inviting people in batches.From what i know we are all in the same boat, those who are getting called are those who applied sometimes in November 2025, so i believe thats why they are getting called first, i may be wrong and not sure. i also applied for ipswich mainline but the only message i have gotten so far is the passed email for SJT and now in the pool, valid for 1 year.
