Question is then.... Does anyone know the cross country HR contact number?
Was there a contact number for the HR does anyone know? I’ve tried emailing them but to no avail. Also passed my psychs but wanting to make sure they won’t be affected by this RAAT test. Thanks in advance

I finished the test with a few minutes to spare, but I didn’t check over answers because I didn’t know if you had to press the finish test option for the test to be completed in time.

Some difficult questions in there, you have to read quite closely for some of them.

Not necessarily. They can only do so many in a day. The might just be filling up a day at a time.

When have people got interviews? Anyone know what sort of questions you get asked? I thought you did the psychometric tests first then interviews or is it different for different Tocs.

Just out of curiosity I am wondering what the variation of vacancies there are in terms of depots. Are all depots wanting at least one driver accross all depots or mainly midlands ect.
I have notice they required a number of Qualified train drivers for the likes of Edinburgh, Leeds, Leicester and Bournemouth. Would this be similar to the trainees?

I was under the impression that it'll be all over the country for a variety of vacancies in all corners of the UK. Although I did hear that apparently Newcastle aren't taking on - guess so because they're a very small depot for drivers?

I've got my interview tomorrow. Bring it on!
