Interesting, I had a reminder to do my interview. So they must still want them to be completed.

I’ve got to do mine, planning on tomorrow morning. Can I ask for a rough idea on what “they” asked you, or the computer asked you? Never done a video interview before! Thanks

I’ve applied and due to be assessed on Thursday. Still debating if I’m going to attend or not. I have valid passes with the TOC I work for, so don’t want to risk eradicating my passes should I fail! (My TOC is likely to recruit early this year for trainees). When did you find out your results...

Hi, thanks for your response. I’ve done this and am waiting on a response from my current TOC. Also going to sleep on it, and then decide.

Hi, not it wasn’t classed as a trainee vacancy. Thanks

Hi all, I’ve been invited to an online interview for Shunter Driver with Southeastern. Does anybody have any hints or tips for the interview/questions that may be asked. I previously passed the assessment day for trainee driver, so have some idea on the STAR technique for answering questions...
