Fairly easy to get a permanent swap at Hornsey if need be to permanent t earlies, lates, nights if that is preferable to working your rosta. I do perm earlies but wife works from home two days a week so around to do school run.

Go to the assessment , gtr are enhanced pass mark. Did you pass to enhanced standard with SWr?. Also gtr do an extra fault finding test. MMI and DMI on separate days!

Hi mate. Thanks for reply. He’s applied for Essex. So I suppose that would be barking or tilbury I’m guessing. He’s got lots of experience working on building sites and is a qualified crane slinger so safety critical experience. told him to brush up on star technique for the questions and...

Thanks for the reply. It’s actually my brother in law who’s applied for the role. He done the English, maths, mechanical comprehension at home in a computer with them watching him via a camera. I’m in the industry as a driver already but this is the first job he’s applied for on the railways.

Hey guys, has anyone had an interview In The past with DB cargo for mobile operative. Just wondering if the interview will have competency based questions or is it more relaxed with the usual what do you know about the company type questions. Any advice or pointers much appreciated. Thanks.

I’m on September course. Been a two year wait in their talent pool but finally there!!

I think some of the people going through at the moment will be luck enough to get in in September. I think maybe 3 already in for September leaving 5 spaces.

I’m not on in June as I was told to self isolate for 12 weeks at medical by doctor due to immune suppressed medication I take. So another painful wait for September to roll around.

Had my DMI last week. Awaiting medical after two years in talent pool. This is gonna screw the whole country.

Sorry to hear mate. Have they cancelled training or just moved it back. I had DMI last week with gtr and booked in for medical. Expecting it to be postponed. This is so ****ed up. I’m in a job at least but self employed and just about covering expenses now. Had to phone mortgage company today...
