Northern rail trainee train driver

[Driver1]

I'm 3 weeks into the training. Be prepared for a long wait. I applied in December and started the end of September. Also communication with hr isn't great so most of the time you don't know what's going on. However it's worth the wait.

Hi! How lond did you have to wait for the interview? Thanks.

Hi Lee! To be honest I did not expect you to answer knowing how busy you are with your training. Thanks. Hope you are doing well. After the interview how long did they take before actually telling you that you had been successfull and offering you the position? Thanks.

Hi it took until May to manage to get a reply from the numerous emails I sent, just to find out the outcome of my interview. I emailed again about the next stage because I'd already passed the psychometric tests, again I heard nothing! Then I got a letter to attend a medical in August and received my contract about 3 weeks before my start date. It was a frustrating few months, but worth it in the end.
