What about Grove Park Depot - What traction and routes do they sign? I've heard it is a intensive metro work but I might be wrong.

Same as Charing Cross except bottom links take off Sevenoaks to Tunbridge Wells and 375s. Add on loads of Bromley North poppers. Higher links sign 375s, Tunbridge Wells and Ashford but it'll take a good few years to get onto that work. Start and finish times at Grove Park are quite extreme as it's a main stabling point. There's loads of walking time when you have a platform pick up though as you book on in the yard.

Hey all
I applied for the Victoria depot last month and I’m patiently waiting for my DMI. HR did say I could be waiting a long time and my tests are only valid for 3 years. So I’m using this time to research the TOC and routes if I’m lucky enough to get to the next stage.

Hey
I know they have started assessments but did anyone who passed assessment and MMI heard anything about DMI?

I haven’t been given any information regarding when I’ll have my DMI. They said I could be in the talent pool for a long time. So maybe I won’t have the interview until actual vacancies come up. That’s my line of thought anyway.

I was asked to pick assessment date for end of this month. I also called them to find out about time scales. Originally I applied for Dartford, but mentioned that I would be happy for other stations in Kent. Ashford is now also available, training to start around June once people pass relevant assessments and interviews

In regards to the DMI, does anyone know when they invite you? Do they normally wait for vacancies at the depot or do you have the interview relatively soon after initial assessments.

I am currently in the process of being considered for the Victoria talent pool after passing my MMI last month.

Also, I emailed SE but haven’t had a response yet.

Also I just want to say thank you to everyone in here, all the information regarding assessments, MMI and the DMI has been invaluable
