Hi Jon, I signed up for aperts from Northern, they sent me an email when the advert was placed and I went from there really. It's worth looking at your local TOCs and signing up for job alerts. I would say stay away from depot driving as the work isn't interesting and the pay is poor compared to main line.
As for the drop in pay, I worked my nuts off at my part time and saved enough to see me through 12 months but there's always interest free credit cards, I'm not condoning credit but you'll soon be in a position to pay it off, small pain for long term gain, that's what I had drilled into me by my mate who took the leap a few years ago. I honestly, hand on heart know that you won't regret it, you just need to find the company hiring!
