I'm sure you'll be fine with your medical. My bmi was 39 and I was fine.
Congrato on the appointment mate, as long as you keep your head down and don't do anything stupid you'll never work another day in your life :)
I'm currently in my 7th week of training, really enjoying it. Been out working with a minder doing doors and announcments and it's good fun, deffinately beats sitting in an office all day.
If your the kinda person that enjoys being around people and making things work you'll love it
I'm with Northern, I wasn't in a talent pool I had my interview in Feb and told them in Feb I was on holiday in April and he just said OK you'll have to go on the next course after April then
Which depot are you going to be based mate? As far as I'm aware they're only really bothered about the first 3 beeps in the test I think I heard on here
I was supposed to start in April but because of a prebooked holiday had to wait until may and I've just finished my first week.
There's no holiday alowed during training and it lasts around 12 weeks.
Hope that helps :)
Nightmare Saville test? As in the work strengths that asks about yourself? I wouldn't of called that a nightmare lol.
I got my interview email about a week or two after doing the saville
We were on the same assessment day!
Did you get a place? I was on holiday when the first course started so I'm now starting on Monday, passed medical yesterday so I'm good to go.
