Sorry to hear that Burton, keep plugging away at it though and if anything it’s great experience for the next time around, you know about what to expect now. You’ve done well to get to the interview stage so your not far off at all buddy. I had my video interview today, mixed feelings about how...

Wow, no need to be so judgemental guys I asked a pretty simple question, no need to judge me on that. Just needed a yes or a no from someone in the know. Obviously if I can’t then I’ll just have to crack on and and smash it out tonight before deadline like I’m sure many have had to do being...

Good morning guys Any help/advise would be much appreciated here. Basically I’ve got my video interview for the East Midlands future opportunities position on this coming Thursday, I received my tests via email a few days ago (the scenario test and SHL tests) and annoyingly with work I just...

Yeh I also got no reply when sending my ID off, and I too left it late Well I got it sent off on the 28th but not until like 9pm I don’t think it’s anything major though, especially if the interview for some of us isn’t until mid too late September

From what I’ve read on here, providing you’ve gone with the right attitude and have clearly shown you’ve tried, your LOM will book you onto another training course if you fall short of the mark. Some that have failed have probably decided that actually....this isn’t for them, after all it...

I’d try not to worry about it too much mate. It’s not a scenario where they are trying to catch you out etc they simply want to see how your thinking process works when presented with a situation. I’ve had one before years ago when I had an interview to get a job working for Western Power...

Thank you!!

Well after 20 applications with no success in the form of an interview (a few “assessment 2 pendings”) I’ve finally got an interview on the 24th September for the Eastern Region future opportunities positions Absolutely buzzing If my interview was tomorrow I’d be more than ready for it so...

Those locations couldn’t be more ideal for me, I live in Lincoln so Boston, Sleaford, Market Rason and of course Lincoln are dream positions. I’ve since had to apply for positions more further afield as I’m sure a lot of people do just to get a footing in the door for a period of time. There...

Hey folks I was wondering if anyone had any info on the Crossing Keeper position for Roddige such as shift times? Obviously the goal is signalling and I understand when going for these types of positions (crossing keeper) that if lucky/fortunate enough to be accepted into that role, one...

Thanks Amanda And the BIB is so amazing and proof as to why its important to take these tips and apply them. I think I've seen it before but it must only have been a skimming over. I've now looked at it properly and compared it with my CV and although I'm pleased to see I'm not far off from...

Well I've now had 18 applications that have been unsuccessful over a period of nearly a year, nailing it I know Many of them have come through fairly quickly as application unsuccessful but 7 have at least progressed to "application under consideration for assessment 2" before then being...

I think most would advise to just apply for the position you want If signalling is what you want, then keep an eye out for external positions near you or atleast within a distance your happy to travel and go directly for a signalling position by the time you’ve Managed to secure another job in...

Yeh this was kind of my thinking too thanks for your reply mate

Could anyone help me please as I’m a little confused. I took the online tests several days ago having applied for 5 signalling positions I received an email for 2 positions (grade 3, grade 7) saying I’d reached the required bench mark, great stuff! but I’ve since received 2 emails for 2 other...
