Been asked by friend to see if anyone has information on what happens in an interview for a Qualified Driver job at Scotrail.

Apparently its "Glasgow area"(?). Any info would be handy. Ta in advance.

No-one any clues on a Scotrail Qualified Driver interview?

Anyone from another Abellio company know anything about Qualified Driver interviews?

Don't want to go back to mate empty-handed (he's not an internet person so trying to help out).

Try the thread for scotrail trainee drivers or scotrail qualified drivers mate, could be more people on there who can help.

Can’t speak for Scotrail in particular but driver interviews as a whole will basically be structured similar to this:
- tell us a little about yourself (little history about your career so far)
- what can you tell us about our company?
- A few rules questions (some will have this as a mini test before interview others will ask in interview)
- A few situational based questions (name a time when you’ve had to deal with....... etc)
- Have you any questions? (Chance to ask about the company and ask about routes, rostering, etc)

Structure varies company to company, but ultimately if you prepare for each of these steps you should be covered

Ta for reply. Been through a lot of threads on here. Loads of stuff for Trainee Drivers interviews but can't find anything for Qualified.
