Once you have a job with them you should get a staff travel pass straight away.

As a former SWT employee / Manager, I can assure that you'll be given your SWT Travel Pass almost immediately.

Good luck!

You'll get a temporary pass almost immediatly as above, and it will be valid for about 3 months. Well before this expires you'll get your permanent pass.

Good Luck with the i/v - whats the position?

I went for Line Cleaner a little while a go. I had the Basingstoke Station Manager and I think it was Head Of Stations doing the interviews (this was to be based at Basingstoke).

It was the standard criteria based interview, so the sort of questions like; 'Tell me a time when you went out your way to satisfy a customer?'. 'Tell me how you would do this?', 'What do you know about the company?' and others.

My only tip is to read up about the company on their website, learn who the MD is, the owning company, how passengers they carry, where they operate too etc etc.

And one more tip is to relax and be yourself!
