Patience is required. Unless you’re what they are looking for. Be prepared for the long haul.

I don't think we're looking at assessment dates until at least the end of this year

I've done my assessments with another toc so I'm waiting for a DMI for Thameslink. Been waiting over two months. Hopefully it's soon.

Will you not have to complete the DFFT ?
No rush with practicing then, I guess...

I did that in Croydon nearly three months ago and I"m happy to say I passed it. I also did the online scaat test and passed it.
I just hate this waiting around.

3 months ago was the last I heard from them, emailed about 6 weeks ago and got ignored

Hopefully we hear soon but most likely once all this ticket office mess is sorted out. All the tocs are very busy sorting that out.Also awaiting a DMI.

I’d get used to it.
Afternoon Chaps.
For those of you who have completed the miniSCAAT, how long did it take for you to be notified of the results (assuming that you were?). I just did it myself and I confess I'm feeling anxious to know if I made the cut!
Thanks

A week, if I remember correctly.

I'm waiting for Cricklewood.
Anyone know if there is parking at Cricklewood and roughly how many spaces in the car park? Also is there any electric charge points ? Or if there is any plans to add them in the future.
Thank you for your help.

Don’t know the answers. But until you get PTS (which is pretty quick) it’s the worst depot to access
Parking yes but don't know how many spaces. Usually enough. Charging points I'm pretty sure yes. I'm working in Cricklewood tonight and will double check if I remember.

Thank you for your help.

Hopefully will be good news for those waiting.
27 spots , one is disabled and five for electric. Three charging points each has two sockets by the look of it. Although not official parking you could probably park outside the main depot entrance. Network rail and contractors used to. It's well off the beaten path and your vehicle would be safe , a colleague of mine used to park outside.

That's great information. Thank you.
If I got the job, it's only around 30 minutes drive for me. It would be perfect.

Looks like some that applied for this vacancy are being contacted by Thameslink
What depots are they contacting about?

Haven't mentioned atm tho I have a pal who's been sent miniscat assesment for them however after not hearing from Southern earlier in the campaign
Didn't apply for Selhurst myself but I believe that no one has heard anything, regardless of which depot applied for.
Do you know for which depot/s the new course is?
