So I once again have another shot at the trams with firstgroup. I got a phone interview on the 11 August. Last time I went for this I passed the phone interview but messed up on the assessment day. It was to do with train timetables. You was asked to work out what time you would get to other train stations, if your train was running late what was the fastest time you would get to your destination just general questions like that. But I failed seemed so easy. I was just wondering is there any good links I could practice on as I'm 90% sure it will be the same test. If anyone could point me in the right direction I would be greatful.

Just had my telephone interview today. I felt the questions were quite silly i.e what do you think youll be doing during training etc.

When I went last time it was just two tests the train timetable and a scat test with shapes. After that would be a little drive in a car/van then interview. But my nerves got the better of me which lead me to fail.

Phone interview pretty easy really throws you off how easy it is think it's just to see if you speak English well tbh

Good morning Forum

I was recently successful in my application for Tram Driver and offered a conditional offer which I am chuffed to pieces with, but wondered if anyone else was successful and have had anymore correspondence...

Thanks
