Hi all,

I applied for Trainee Train Driver at Edinburgh and was very surprised to be notified I had been successful at the sifting stage.

I have had a good study at the test papers sent to me by E-Mail and initially felt they were mega daunting!! How different are the tests on the day? (At assessment centre)?

There's loads of information about the tests & interview process already posted on here.

Please remember that you're trying to secure a job, where you will have to use your initiative!

I wouldn't say different, rather similar .

They are very similar but obviously a lot harder, so you need to practice. Also need to prepare your answers for the structured interview - the booklets will not help with this.

Cheers for the reminder! Believe it or not, I currently hold a position in my work where 'your own initiative' is absolutely paramount! ;0)
