Hi, Don't want to spoil the party but the reality is you have to get into TFL first, when you look at vacancies they're mainly for high profile positions, rarely are there openings for us ordinary oiks, when there are, they seem to be snapped up pronto (me thinks internally), if you are lucky...

kleb15, I failed at shortlist stage for WGC and I live within a stones throw. I was quite confident of getting through to interview stage at least, got through to managers interview at Hornsey earlier in the year (maintenance role), thought I had it made. Makes me think though, this position...

OK, that clears things up, if I am correct I am of the belief the FCC shift allowance is about 3-4k p.a ? taking this amount up to about 20k, in my opinion still not great for nights, but then again I'm not applying. Thanks for the response & explanations. Regards, U51

Hi melvyn12, thanks for the heads up, that's a great help, also had a chat with 2 ticket inspectors this morning ( had spare time as train was cancelled !), they were also very helpful and answered my questions. Thanks again. Regards, U51

9th of May, mine's on the 4th, same place, near as dammit Liverpool St. I'm sure it'll all get explained. Good luck Regards, U51

Pitdiver, Hi, I also have an assessment / interview with 'activities' next Friday at Liverpool Street with FCC, would you know by any chance as the description is 'loose' as to whether the position is based at a fixed location and if the pay advertised includes shift rate? (I should hope not...
