    Scotrail Trainee Drivers (Ongoing)

    While I have had 4 interviews over the last few years my applications are well in to double figures so if we include those knock backs.. it really is frustrating. Spending your days off at other depots etc all for nothing is getting tiresome. Clearly there is something about me that they don't...

    Im internal, I just apply everytime. I think its 6 months from the date of the vacancy being listed rather than after the interview. Ive sat the tests twice as they ran out the first time. Thats how long I have been trying........

    Surprise surprise, unsuccessful for the 3rd time in 12 months and 4th overall. I await the generic feedback and pretty much give up on trying again. I'm assuming they are clearing our the rejections first, so good luck to those waiting.

    I've had a few interviews and always been asked that. Standard question. The thing is with interviews you just never know. I've had what I thought were good an bad and stI'll been knocked back. Other people have told me how terribly their's has went and still got through. You just never know.

    No, it's harder. As a conductor for 7 years I have had many interviews and I'be still not managed to get past DMI interview yet.

    You only get the rest of the tests if you are successful at interview.

    As a Scotrail guard I can say no one will bother if you buy the south gyle ticket. As long as you have a ticket.

    No. As long as it is disclosed as per the medical forms request. They may ask you doctor for further information but will not affect your application unless it has affected your ability to work previously.

    Update - one of my colleagues received word today. So I don't think there is a system as such.
