    How should I handle these Glasgow Central situations?

    Hi the "zig zag" is more than wide enough to walk through with your bike. See people doing it every day. if not, the ticket machines are right next to the ticket office. the barrier staff will let you through the wider barrier with the bike.

    Yes!! result! well done! The interview wasn't as bad as I imagined. Was just two people and some fairly standard questions about "have you ever faced a difficult customer - how did you deal with it" etc. all basic customer service orientated questions.

    I think as long as you get all the important bits then you will be fine :) Were there many at your assessment? there were 6 people at mine, and all of them got through to interview stage

    better than too little! the important thing was not to write down the information that was irrelevant - ie about it being a wet day etc

    excellent one thing I will say though - badger their HR people as much as you can, cause they are absolutely useless and take weeks and weeks to get back to you unless you are on at them constantly. I am meant to be starting in less than 2 weeks and they still haven't confirmed my start...

    CSA Role - Medical

    Hello, As per my other thread recently, I've been offered a CSA job with Network Rail. The offer is conditional on passing a medical. I've been reading on here about different medicals etc and I was reading about the BMI limit being 33 - I reckon I am about 35. Will this stop me...
