That's a different job, so you still have an opportunity with LNER.

This thread was for the London north eastern railway post. Not Avanti

 

[Mtop]

Avanti and LNER were so close together they almost blurrr into each other, especially at a time like this!
I boned Avanti too, fingers crossed LNER will be the ace in the deck

 

[badger1badger]

Good luck to everyone

I agree all days seem the same !

Anyone heard anything?

Nothing yet no.

Not yet, LNER are the premier TOC, they will obviously choose the best people available and they have plenty of time to do that given our current situation. My feeling is that it is worth the wait, and when the time comes, rain or shine, you should be proud to get this far. I wish all applicants the best of luck as I hope for myself!

Just received a rejection email now, never mind. Thought my phone interview went well but did only last about 15 minutes or so. At least I applied, you only live once after all!

Sorry to hear that, keep trying. When was your phone interview?

 

[Coopes1710]

Does anyone know if you will get feed back at this stage if it turns out you are unsuccessful

 

[Irish Rail]

Does anyone know if you will get feed back at this stage if it turns out you are unsuccessful

Based on experience, unlikely due to number of applicants.

 

[Gigmole]

WOW! This just dropped into my inbox

Thank you for taking part in your telephone interview for the position of Trainee Driver.

It’s good news, we’d love to progress you to the next stage!

Good luck to everyone else.

 

[dan4291]

Just over 4 weeks ago.

My rejection email states you can request feedback but may take a while to respond, which is fair enough.

 

[Coopes1710]

I have just had a email saying I am progressing to the next stage.
The only problem is my GCSE’s are equivalent through NVQ L2 and L3.
It says they need copies emailing and if my qualifications are equivalent they have to be specific to Maths and English so it looks like I won’t be able to go any further although I will contact them and try my luck

Congrats!

I guess now is time everyone will start refreshing their inboxes constantly.

I think you're right

So people know, they are asking for NI number if you have ever passed psychometric testing before, so it looks like these will be accepted.

That's good to know!

 

[na281093]

The people who are hearing back, which depot did you apply for? I haven't had an email yet and as always it's the anticipation that kills you haha!

 

[patwreynolds]

Any idea how you go about getting old GCSE certificates from the late 90’s!? I’m going up in the loft shortly but not confident I’ll be able to find them!

I almost certainly have lost all of mine. But you can request replacement copies from the exam boards. It costs a fair few quid,so i'm not going to request them unless I pass this stage.

Get a replacement exam certificate

Request a replacement exam certificate or a certified statement of results if you've lost your original - check the list of old exam boards if your board no longer exists

[Esker-pades]

Rejection e-mail. Good luck to those who managed to proceed!

The e-mail says that feedback is available if requested, but it will take a while.

 

[BoeingBird]

First post from me - hello everyone! I've passed the phone interview but also have no idea where my certificates are and also only have a maths GCSE equivalent. Have emailed to ask if there is a process for this. Will update if I hear back.

Thanks mate appreciated

 

[Coopes1710]

I’d did say they would need copies of certificates at the beginning.
It didn’t say the equivalent had to be specific to Maths and English.
I’ll update when I find out where I stand

 

[Josho124]

Are LNER going to be using the OPC for the next lot of testing?

 

[JamieA42]

No emails yet.

Refreshing it every 5 minutes.
Incredibly nervous
Good luck everyone.
