No I haven't yet, have you?
They said it would be 5-7 days before hearing anything, so 7 days will be tomorrow and we will hear directly from c2c.

Alan, I haven't heard anything yet either today. Nothing in the post or by email, I'll be honest I was expecting to hear today as it's been 7 days. Were you on the morning or afternoon session last Thursday?

Congratulations Hammersmad well done!
I was on the afternoon session.
It does look like we would have been told by now so doesn't look like good news :(. I thought I done well though!

Strange as I got an email saying Monday. I think I'll leave it until later and give them a call to find out.

OK, so I've called and no answer.... Bit concerning especially as the original email said the 2nd assessment would be Monday.

I called them at 11.30 Hammersmad asking if I had passed as I wanted to know so I could book the day off work for the next assessment date. I spoke to Sarah she said Michelle would call me back, but heard nothing yet.

Well if you hear anything, can you post it on here? I've emailed a few times, called many times (no answer). Not sure what else I can do!

Not sure if this is for everyone (they may have multiple days running), but got my email info pack earlier this evening.

Got to be at the OPC in Hertfordshire for 0845 next Friday (14th) for an all day event.

Only a half day for me as I failed the last part of the Vienna test.
Absolutely gutted as if it had been with any other rail company I'd have passed but because c2c have a higher pass mark I failed.
Good luck to those who are still to attend.
Get there in good time, someone was turned away for being late.
And PREPARE!!

Sorry to hear I passed the sift despite living a long way away...

I passed with freightliner and fgw accept my pass... C2C don't apparently it was the wav and I know where I went wrong but can't retake for six months.. should be simply pass or fail. Presumably this is not one of your two attempts failed. If you sit privately they want you to do everything again though

Regarding the wav .. The screen seemed to get darker and darker which baffled me. I thought it was simply grey or black shades (the latter the change in colour you are meant to react to) so perhaps my eyes tricked me it was a long sequence with no black and I forgot how black the square got in comparison to what was appearing a darker and darker shade of grey which I mistakingly reacted to

I failed the co-ordination. Apparently passed the other two with flying colours. Slightly annoyed that I've failed because of c2c's higher pass mark requisite. But I'll give it another shot.

Well, so far so good. Got a phone call today to say I'd passed the MMI that I sat on Friday. And DM interview booked for Thursday....

Bit quicker than I was anticipating. My interview is with Steve Mason, another Driver Manager and a notetaker.

Aside from the obvious research on their own website, company basics, polishing answers for any competency based questions and researching depot driving duties in general, does anyone have any helpful input for this interview? First time I've been through this process and wasn't anticipating 2 days warning for the final hurdle :lol:

Thanks for any help in advance.

Hiya,
Haven't heard anything yet, but I knew they were holding a couple of interviews last week so I was kind of anticipating this week to be the earliest that I would hear anything.

Going to wait patiently until Friday and get in contact with them to see what's happening.

Regards

Ed
