I know this forum seems to be more train crew based but does anybody know or have information for apprentice assessment days for TPE. Business, performance sector etc. Also the type of tests that will be taken. Thanks.

This is Liverpool drivers refreshing Cheshire lines who have been unable to route review during covid.

There is wanting to be spoon fed with answers and there is using your initiative and doing a bit of research. Nothing wrong with the latter.

You stated earlier the fact that others got through and you didn't shows the recruitment process does not work....Do you know what others wrote in their application? No...so it does not show anything but the fact the others submitted a better application. With a poor attitude clearly shows you...

It's the average of your salary over the last 3 year's before you retire .

The contributions will come out of salary weekly of 4 weekly. It will be around 10% but is different for each toc due to that section of the railway pensions performances. Also whether your salary is fully pensionable. You can not pay any more into this but you can join brass 2 which is an...

Chrisw, i take it you never heard back or was not the news you wanted. Bad luck mate, especially after going to the interview stage. Did they give you a reason why etc.....Just keep going for it and dont give up. You know you can do it now. Start date is next Monday the 18th.

Still nothing here. Only 4 working days to go!!

Nothing to worry about. One of my references was returned 10 days ago. They also sent me other bit of paperwork I think was missing from the original pack for me to fill in. We all should hear soon I think. Ive already left my work. 2.5 weeks holiday owed then officially leave so yesterday was...

Just got the phone call guys. See you all on the 18th

Have they told you properly then?

Nope, nothing here. I dont think they have contacted references as im waiting to be summoned by my current employer asking why I want to leave. As yet, all is quiet from my bosses

Anyone had their final confirmation after medical. Suspense is doing my head in!

Yes I returned them tuesday afternoon. Im guessing they will not contact references until they have confirmation of full medical results..Fingers crossed still. Good luck guys

They said would let me know by end of week. Medical said will have result today, then they need references etc. --- old post above --- --- new post below --- They said would let me know by end of week. Medical said will have result today, then they need references etc.

Had my medical today also. That went ok. Had interview yesterday so just waiting to hear back. They were aware they had sent two conditional offers. One was on the condition of successful interview and medical so fingers crossed. The other was a mistake.

Cant answer your question really. I got my interview tomorrow and medical on wednesday. They have now sent me two emails (friday and this morning) of a conditional offer of employment saying congrats i passed interview....???? Maybe one is supposed to be for you! I would possibly give them...

Personally im not sure this is beneficial. First the cost. Second it only lasts two years therefore is only worth 3 applications at best as you can only apply for one at a time and then can not apply for 6 months. Most tocs have a trainability so you will still have to do some sort of assessment...

Congtats. Ive just got email with a conditional offer of employment saying I was successful in the interview.........confusing as ive not even had it yet..its on tuesday with a medical the following day....hey ho, good news I guess

Im not saying one is better than the other. The Op said jobs were quite rare and he would keep his fingers crossed. I simply stated that Ftpe were advertising again soon and advised also to possibly look at a conductor or other railway job first to get a foot in the door as it may give him a...
