Some people have been finding out very quickly. I found out exactly a week later, so don't take the waiting time as any sort of good or bad news - it all depends on how busy they are at head office.

Well done guys, still awaiting my invite to interview, I passed stage 2 on the Friday of week 1 (17th July). Was called and emailed on the 20th but have had nothing since, did anyone get any clues as to when the DMIs will be completed by?

If you want to update your list further, they asked me which depots I was after and I said
Kings Cross and Hitchin

Hi,
Had a letter this morning inviting me to a DMI next Thursday

when did you do your stage 2 if you don't mind me asking..mine was on the 22nd of July- I want to go abroad next week for a couple of days but am reluctant to buy the tickets in case I get a letter...

Alex - I would suggest calling them. It is the time people go on there summer holidays so I'm sure they will accommodate you if they can.

I'm in the "talent pool" and am just happy I am now awaiting a start date. Bedford is were I applied for and I'm presuming due to a lack of DI's course have been set back as they are split between TL and GN......i was told maybe Oct but there would be other courses running in 2016.

I keep telling myself I have three years till I'm required to re do my medical and I passed that early June 2015.....

GD luck to you all and see u on courses!!!

I was asked at DMI what depot would be my choice, I said Bedford but if Hitchin was available, both stations are equidistant from where I live.

Since then I haven't heard which I would be based at, altho I did say at HR after medical during an informal chat, I live near Bedford.

But that's me saying that, not them ( I could end up with Hitchin for all I know !! )

Hi Mate

I was scheduled a DMI end of May but was in Greece. I emailed, explained situation, and it was changed no fuss.

Give them a ring / mail

People not getting medicals now only after they are placed on courses noone automatically having medicals as before change of policy perhaps but logically they will surely use up us guys who have already passed medicals first


Ah ok thats new to me, you must have your sources for information!

I have no idea why they changed their policy, but their must be a good reason, i wouldnt start think about that too much!...maybe start date info is imminent:|

Ask your sources when we're getting start dates?!
