    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    Personally, Wantacab, I do believe that you have every right to be feeling ever so slightly bitter about the situation. It’s very unfortunate that EMT have suddenly decided this is a necessary part of their driver recruitment now! Not something I look forward to myself either! Does anybody...

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    You have passed the assessments and MMI Dynamonic? So if you get through this part it’ll be just the medical?

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    You’ll be in today then? Best of luck. I just feel they’d be mad to base it purely on interview performance as some people are better in interviews than others, but their career history could well suggest they would make a good trainee depot driver.

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    What I would be interested to know is how they will decide on who gets through this stage; is it going to be purely based on interview performance or do your career history/cv count towards their decision too?

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    So, I am right to believe that only one person on this forum has actually had any kind of response from Friday??? Seems odd if interviews are planned for next week!

    Competency based interview

    I would just like to add to that; the railway has actual tests for the basic skills, i.e psychometric assessment for drivers, SCAAT and RAAT for other safety critical roles. The interview is to hear about your experience in using the skills that you have, not to bring out the best actors. I'd...

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    Sorry to hear that Wantacab. Did you get any specific feedback at least? And don’t worry about feeing bitter, it’s human nature and you have every right to in my opinion as this stage seems ridiculous for driver positions quite frankly! So to be rejected at this stage must be a bitter pill to...

    Train manager East Midlands Trains

    Hi. Is your assessment tomorrow? And if so, what time and where abouts? EMT seem to be running TM and trainee Depot driver assessments at the same time? Quite strange

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    13:00 is strange, maybe I’m just over analysing. I would have thought it would be in the morning, so perhaps they have so many passes that they are running two sessions!

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    Haha same for me! I don't want to tempt fate by booking it off only to find out I failed! :-/

    A career as a train driver

    What a great forum. I've literally only just found this! Currently going through the recruitment process for Trainee Depot Driver roles with East Midlands Trains. Waiting to hear how I've got on with the tests. The next step will be some kind of assessment day...
