Agreed. I also think it' easier the this version but it would more than prepare you for what you will face. The you tube version is totally false

Just to add Arriva also carry out an EGG test

I have inside contact, 6k applicants applied so its a very lengthy process on my first attempt it took 8 months for me to get a response and was given a weeks notice to attend. Advice is start getting prepared regardless

MTR are very friendly and warm, Arriva too, however once qualified, however I like to look of the roster for Arriva. looks good out of 56 days you only work 32 and have the rest as RD, do drivers really require that much rest lol?

I had already completed all stages with MTR, so with Arriva, I went right through to the final interview stage as both company set identical standards. The depots are adjacent to each other, Old common oak and Willesden Junction respectively. MTR sub contract their recruitment drive and a lot...

No I wouldn't as I would jump at MTR. However this is only because I have superficial info on both companies. MTR in my mind are on a new venture with new innovative processes. Arriva have peaked and only can maintain or go down in performance. Its just a feeling without knowing first hand...

I am in a serious dilema. Its slighrlt off topic. I am on standby to until at least Sept 2018 for a trainning course. It may happen sooner or maybe not until 2019. I have now been invited to a final interview for London Arriva. Both depots are in touching distance of each other. Benefits are...

I got a call yesterday too and have been told I am on standby. I have a friend that passed his early November and got a date for his classes to start September. So unless there are going tl be drop outs I wont be starting before September

Hi Guys I rang Toni Honiton to ask as she did my interview with another driver manager. I dont feel confident as she more or less told me to speak to HR/Recruitment whom then said they are waiting for results from the DM's. So I basically got caught in a loop backed with the typical template...

Congrats. I did my online assessment and felt the same way about the 3rd test,fingers crossed I made it through to the test centre

I did not have to wait long for a response after handing in my support letter. I then only had to wait 4 working days before I found out that I have been successful. First online test which involves the Magnificent 7 - Situational Judgement Test (M7-SJT) Visual Search Exercise (VSE). I am...
