I'm a bit confused. You're obviously TfL staff already, so there's lots of info on the internal Sharepoint, why do you keep asking on a public forum?
Hi zcarrey, if you dive into this forum post you will find some answers, the best advice I can give you is to really deep dive into the situation that is given to you. You’re given about 10 minutes to prepare and you need to pick apart the situation, talk about what you notice, anything you’ll be extra careful with, anything you might prioritise, who might you consult?, etc.
Thank you for giving constructive advice (unlike that Mawkie individual), I'm not really looking for the exact scenarios or anything...the likely hood of those coming up is zero. I've just done SBI before and was unsuccessful (even though I felt confident) and this has dented my confidence a bit so I'm trying to strategise on how to tackle it
REMEMBER TO USE STAR when explaining what you would do.
@Mawkie wasn't being unconstructive - in fact I wholeheartedly agree with their advice. It appears that you are an internal candidate applying for Train operator; asking for advice on a CSA recruitment thread is therefore completely unhelpful and inappropriate, as the SBIs will be completely different.
you might not have felt it wasn't unconstructive, I did (a simple case of, if you don't have anything helpful to say, it's okay to keep it moving and not talk down to people). I have looked through and continue to look through sharepoint for info but thank you for that. I figured it was best to also double up. As I mentioned earlier, I wasn't interested in the exact scenarios (because as you said they would be unhelpful) but more so on tips of how to approach the SBI, particularly as both CSA/T.O are on the operational side of tfl and I'm not CSA.
Thank you so much, yeah I'm putting together an outline using that method!
They're on the operational side of LUL, but they're also very different roles. There is a CSA to T/Op pipeline, but there's not that much overlap between the roles.
Thank you...I'm aware of that
I agree with @zcarrey . I can understand how he might have gotten hurt in this instance.you might not have felt it wasn't unconstructive, I did (a simple case of, if you don't have anything helpful to say, it's okay to keep it moving and not talk down to people).

Be sure to break down clearly every step of how you would approach the scenario explaining why you made that choice. Ensure your answers prioritise or highlight TFL Values. The details in the scenario aren't just for show, think about why it's relevant in the scenario. Good Luck!

okay that makes sense. did they offer you any dates in december? i’m assuming there weren’t many to start with because i imagine there isn’t any training dates in and around christmas.
