Good morning,
I have recently applied for a job with Network rail as an operative track maintenance.
I have been on the website this morning to see how my application has gone and it says Invite to assessment 2 pending could anyone shed any light on what this means is it for an interview face to face or a phone call.
Any help would be gratefully appreciated

Well I've had a call from network rail a few hours ago to offer me an interview on the 3rd of May.
Anyone got any tips on what to read up on.
Thanks

A long time.

That's what I was thinking I applied for positions at Doncaster and Wakefield both just waiting to see if I have made the interview stage by the department managers. The Wakefield position actually says interviews been held in October, first time I've seen that on an application and only closed yesterday so I guess I will be find out in next few weeks.

Yes mate same one with x2 positions available. I have the same status update as well if you look a little further down in application attachments it says test complete - success. I guess its just a waiting game till we hear anything. When my status changes I will let you know and if you can do the same? Good luck too

Yes mine has changed to under consideration for assessment 2 aswell. I applied for a Doncaster post and that changed to under consideration for assessment which was 2 weeks ago! I would guess that just means information has been passed on to department manager to sort through for interviews? How long was you waiting to find out if u were successful last time you applied as this is my first time.

It took about a month last time to change from under consideration for assessment 2 to invite to assessment 2 pending, took about the same for application unsuccessful too which is awful when you wait so long, hopefully we both get interviews!!

That is harsh!! Hopefully we both at least get a chance in an interview. Did you go for an interview then had to wait another month before you found out you was unsuccessful? I'll let you know whenever my status changes again if you can do same?

After interview you find out pretty quickly, there good at letting you know unlike other companies who don't even get in touch. Yes I'll definitely do the same no problem.

Recently applied for a job and had an interview with network rail in December and recieved a phone call saying she was to contact me and offer me a job and they would be sending the email with more information. My online status changed that day to application reassigned to new vacancy and I have not heard anything back since anyone on this site know why that would be ?

The "application reassigned to new vacancy" is that the job you applied for had multi positions, now you've been offfered a job, you'll be allocated a role from those open.

So you'll be entrant A for example, Joe Blogs entrant B etc.

You'll get a new starter pack shortly with all the information you need.

Congratulations !
