Hi guys quick question please! After the mmi I forgot to tell the interviewer my mobile is currently not working. If I don't receive an email soon with any news who would be the best people to contact OPC or GTR

Had my MMI for this today and honestly have no idea how I did. Was quite relaxed and was same fella who done my assessment day back in 2015, which helped calm the nerves. Lasted just short of the hour and only real questions asked were "what did you do next?" And "How did you feel about that?" Otherwise, I was left to elaborate on my 1 sentence answers to the 6 initial questions.

No updates, no emails or phone call mate. A couple of others I went with got emails saying they passed and will be contacted in future in regards to the DMI.
One of the guys had his part 2 assessment the day after me so I reckon I've failed it.

Gutted after clearing so many hurdles :(

Who told you that you failed? Wait on. Often, no news good news.

No harm in sending an email though.

Good luck.

No. This is 1st time I've done the MMI. I didn't pass the DMI last time so didn't get to take the MMI. This time I passed the DMI so progressed to MMI

Passed the assessments on 20th June and had a call a week later for the DMI, was surprised that quick as we was told to expect it to take a while due to the volume of applicants, applied for great northern as well. I'm from Peterborough buddy fingers crossed for you too.

Think it just depends on numbers as their's only so many computers at Go Ahead House, I met a guy from Bedford on my assessment day and the others were from that way, I was the only one from Peterborough had to stay the night in the Easy Hotel wasn't pleasant lol

You wouldn't get a conditional offer until you'd passed both the DMI and MMI. The only thing in your way after that conditional offer is your medical.

Just had call to say I passed MMI. Medical being booked and start date of 20th September at cricklewood. Medical depending of course. To say I'm happy is an understatement!
