38 isn't old............

Why do you want to become a train driver......don't say for the money. The tests take care of all the rest....concentration, learning, etc...They want to know why you applied for it and do you have enough common sense to at least try for the tests. Just because you worked alone, needed to...

If you think about logically..what are they looking for? Good communicator, loyal worker, certain level of intelligence, good common sense, mature, responsible...I know that takes out about 99% of people. (especially the young uns) but you get my drift? Why do you REALLY want to be a train...

Which application is this for?

I think they put all the names that pass into a hat and pick 10 out....It's probably as simple as that! It's an employees market. They can pick and choose out of 400 applicants. It will only get tougher

The thing is i do not think i would pass all this now.I do not know it is purely down to lack of practice....or age. But my concentration is no what it was. I know that for certain.

what did you when the mother in law came to visit? That is always an emergency.

train too is in that situation. One bad error an grave consequences.

No. Not sure i ever will now

I only got "your application" was unsuccessful.....not one word from them on what part etc...

How did you change your approach?

How do they get to find this out in the interview? so do they want "good/safe train drivers" or people that get along well with senior management?

OK define "attitude" Is it the way you walk, talk, act., look, live...? Is it possible one person could take your friendly "attitude" as cocky? Are they trained in human behaviour/ psychology? Trouble when you bring human psychology, judgement and "gut feel" into it you are just as likely to...

Such a B*S* question really. I mean every emergency is different....as long as you apply common sense. It is one of those questions they can fail or pass you on whether they want to or not.

That's the ting they do not give any feedback..you are left scratching your head and wondering what it was... They should have to give the reason why....then it stops all the "conspiracy" theories. If you failed you failed fair enough but at least tell them why.

I would have thought passing all the tests was more important? I mean you could be ex navy seal but if you have the concentration of a 7 year old in a sweet shop what is the point?

Welcome to reality 101 Even if you are 100% perfect your chances are slim

IF it is a true and pure points system to see if they should continue...WHY can a person fail numerous times then pass? It shouldn't make any difference? Especially at the first sifting phase. I can understand if say 30 all passed right the way through THEN they had to cull it down to say...

What does that mean?

Where? Did i miss it?
