Thanks buddy for your info. Kind regardsIt's fairly straightforward. Simple spelling, grammar and punctuation check for the first test, and if you just learn the tube map (ie. What colour each line is, and just familiarise yourself a bit), you should be good. The rest of it comes with instructions. There aren't any trick questions, from what I remember. Also, familiarise yourself with reading timetables (like bus timetables etc). Good luck

When did you have your sbi again ?Just got a conditional offer. Over the moon
Hi there I completed my roleplay/sbi on Thursday nervously waiting for a reply, I was just wondering what the assessors said to everyone after completion e.g they just told me I’ll hear back in 10-14 days with next steps. I saw someone on the forum saying they asked for their nearest station which does seem extremely positive. I didn’t hear that from them so was wondering if that’s a bad sign. Lastly, during the SBI if I missed out potentially one small hazard amidst all the chaos would that result in me failing? A quick reply would be much appreciated. Thanks everyone.
Thank you.
I had my SBI last Friday.

Don’t worry they didn’t ask me anything about stations. They told me 10-14 days. Someone said on here not so long ago that they take in consideration all of your assessments but I’m not too sure. Good luck

I got my uniform today after my 4th week had to go back to Ashfield house to collect it for a mix of new and old so you should get yours around week3/4
What old stuff did you get

The long wait for last hear candidates could be due to the cyber attack they had end of last year so fingers crossed it won’t be as long but we’ll never know

congratulations! unfortunately i failed my roleplay, and im hoping that the next application comes out sooner rather then later, which roleplay did you have?
What was your role play
Have u
Nope. I think they do it in blocks because “Shiftz” must’ve done their SBI on 10th latest, and they received their response yesterday. So the ppl who did their SBI 13th will get a reply once everyone from 10th session has? This is just my theory. I heard that they let u know early if you failed. Someone did their SBI 16/09 and found out they failed on 18/09.

I done mine last Thursday and still ain’t heard nothing lol
As in 16th October?
Yh Thursday 16
Oh okay don’t stress it, the earliest I’ve seen them accept someone is 1 week (5 working days) but there’s also someone here who got accepted 10 days later. So it’s just a waiting game I guess.

If anyone who did their SBI on 13th or later, and has received the outcome please could you let me know? Thank you

I’ve been working at my station for two weeks now lol. Not received a scrap! Fortunately my station gave me shoes and a top and a hi vi but I had to buy my own trousers and sort out a fleece etc.
Genuinely received nothing from Ashfield house since I returned uniform that obviously wasn’t mine in the first place!
What a way to run a business!
I don't want to derail a recruitment thread, but unfortunately, a lack of investment from central government has hollowed out every single area of the business.
The contract for the new uniform was talked about in 2022, with the roll out promised in "late 2023". Here we are in 2025, with front line staff members using their own clothes or hand-me-downs from god knows where.
Getting a job with LU is a great achievement, how are new staff supposed to feel proud of their achievement under these circumstances?
But more importantly, how am I, as a train operator, supposed to recognise staff in an emergncy situation (or even a non-emergency situation)?
Rant over.
Exactly it’s true just because they want one identity which I think is bizarre
