Cheers simon yeah agree suit for me everytime. Its at training centre in Leeds yes, south parade, easy to find?

How is your training going by the way? ru enjoying it? easy or hard? still glad you took the job now you on?

cheers

Paul

South Parade is very easy to find, Use Google maps to give you an idea.

Training is going fine, Just completed week Nine, Enjoying the training we have a good group and the trainers are spot on also.

Its not easy and theres lots to learn but if you put the effort in you will be OK.

Best career move I have ever made.

Hello Paul,

We did not do them in sections, My Psychometric tests were carried out in one go...Concentration test, Ticket selling and verbal communication were the 3 things I did back in June.

I did the test on a Thursday and then was contacted Via E-mail the week after stating I had met the criteria and had passed my Psyciometeric Assessment. I was then contacted by phone on July 1st offering me a position at Sheffield.

Cheers Simon
