Hi,

Which company was it for and for which station?

Is is a permanent role or a seasonal one?

I believe that the next stage is where you are invited to an on-line assessment called 'Count out the money' or something like that.
You will be sent an email notifying you.

Hi
Thanks for that,I completed that assessment and passed them all,following the telephone interview I had they sent me an e mail to say the next step was an assessment/interview date,I just wondered if anyone had attended one of these days and if so what can I expect
Many thanks

Oh I see! You've already done that one.

I went for an assessment day last September but that was for a Customer Host.

I'm not sure if it's the same type of assessment day for a ticket examiner!

Sorry to be a pain but how was that day? Was it lots of different assessments and then a one on one interview
Thanks

No problem at all.

It was a morning where there was about 50 candidates sat around a table. You introduced yourself then you all had a short numeracy test (really simple) and a listening test. Then they split you into 2 groups and you sat around in a group with a scenario for discussion. Everyone put in their input so that everyone's views were heard whilst there are a couple of GWR employees listening and taking notes.
They then call you afterwards if you are successful for a one to one interview.
Hope this helps.
