Hi, with regards to this application, I have a slight query with one of the questions. It's just a small thing but haven't yet been able to work it out !. One of the questions in the online application say's:

"Only required for Trainee driver applicants:

What is your height?:
Format: # feet # inches"

Whatever I try to enter it won't accept. It say's the entry is invalid. eg. To try to enter 6 ft 1 in, I have tried to enter the following:

6 feet 1 inches
6feet 1inches
#6 feet #1 inches
#6feet #1inches
#6 #1
6 1
61
6'1"
6' 1"

Has anyone else managed to get past this successfully ? - If so, what exactly did you enter for this question ?. I'm sure it must be something simple, but it's really frustrating me at the moment !

I'm not applying for this postion so I haven't actually tried, it sounds like an error with the page but you could try using a different browser (bit of long shot but I've had similar things before)

Or perhaps write the number six feet one inch?

Or maybe 06ft 01in?

It's the most ridiculous application form ever. It makes First's website look almost user friendly!

Like First Group, they do it on purpose to get the numbers down!

It's part of the sift

Putting just 5ft 10 seems to have worked for me

It tells you how to enter it lol? The format says #"#
So you enter it 6"4?

Yes, the format is now #"# as you say. This is because I contacted LOROL about the problem with the previous format not working and they came back to admit there was a problem (in that it didn't work) and that they have now changed the format to #"#, and that it will now accept 6"1. I didn't bother to point out that this makes me just over 6 inches tall, as at least the form is now accepting this and will let me move on !

What did everyone put for the overcrowded station question?

What did everyone put for the overcrowded station question?

I got to the "would you work your rest day" question and that pushed me over the edge.

There was no correct answer, no wrong answer.
