    How long do TOC assessments hold good for?

    Hi folks. My son completed, and passed, dispatcher assesements with ScotRail back in February 2020. The jobs then went to hospitality staff who’d been laid off due to covid. So that was that.

    Interview question “Tell me about a time when...”

    I’m hoping someone on here can answer this in relation to specifically Scotrail, but I guess most TOCs will have similar questions... So what sort of questions like this have you been asked in an interview? And how did you respond?
