Has anybody who did the stage 1 assessments last week at Newton Abbot had results back yet?
Curious how many will be in the final assessment stage. I'm stressing over the interview a bit but hopefully it won't be as painful as I'm expecting it to be!
Just received my email asking to book my final assessment. 26/27 January.
Interestingly, it advised its an individual excerise followed by the group excercise. Then the interview.
So I'm thinking the individual excercise is probably a role play...
Evening all

train dispatcher(station delivery assistant) assessment day?
See my post in the link above, as I have said there, it’s been a number of years since my SDA assessment day but don’t think it will have changed too much.
Hope this helps.
Is anyone else struggling with preparing for the interview? I've never had a competency based interview and, although I've got a decade's worth of continuous customer service experience, it's pretty difficult prepping answers for dozens of potential questions with individual stories.
Next one is the CAT Numerical reasoning test. Anyone have any advice or idea as to what to expect with this one?
I did this at the weekend. You get three warm up questions before the test starts so it doesn’t throw you right in the deep end and is multiple choice throughout. Have a pen and paper to hand and make sure your not going to be disturbed. If maths isn’t your strong point........your not going to like it. I thought my maths was quite strong but I found it taxing, a very good test for whittling down their numbers I would imagine.
It’s not a timed test, however the explanation before you start it is that the speed in which you answer affects what question you get next was my understanding. You cannot go back once you have given your answer aswell, so make sure your happy before you move on.
