I fully agree with CJ's comments. I did one for train manager at Holyhead earlier this evening. Mine consisted of four questions, sixty seconds countdown to prep then eighty seconds to provide answer. Unfortunately I let myself down a little with preparation. I should've completed the process...

In relation to the six month rule for reapplying for a role, is it from date application is submitted or date when notified as unsuccessful? Apologies if this has previously been asked anywhere. Reason I ask is I couldn’t go for Chester in March as I’d applied for Crewe in November. I received...

Same problem for me, I have placed primary and secondary in the one box.

Good to know CJ, thanks for the update :)

Anyone in for the two jobs listed in the North had any recent updates? I put in for train crew at Llandudno Junction in February and trainee conductor for Machynlleth in March (after verifying it wasn't just that location but multiple depots). The Llandudno role is showing as on hold on the...

Many thanks for your reply. That's good to know about Chester as that is closest depot for me over Crewe so would definitely suit. My application is in so hoping I hear something. I'll work wherever there is a posting, as you say it's getting into the industry in the first instance.

Thanks all for updates, I did Google search of my home address postcode to Llandudno Junction station postcode and it said 56 minutes. I appreciate I'm at absolute limit on criteria for this location. Chester & Crewe are best for me in terms of journey time. Salary looks very good indeed once...

Has anyone seen this role advertised? Can I deduce that this is a conductor/train manager role (please excuse my lack of knowledge)? I've seen trainee conductor roles posted in the past and wonder if they have now changed description for advertising the role? If not what would the duties be...

It's £27653 and I believe it will be increased later in the year.

Don’t give up yet. From reading the various threads and TFW website they should update people in due course. As has previously been alluded to on this thread and in others it’s a long old process getting into the industry and a law unto itself.

It was for Crewe. Chap who interviewed me said assessment day in Cardiff was scheduled for 5th February 2020.

I received the unsuccessful telephone interview e-mail today. I’m a bit gutted but got the vibe during the interview that I could’ve done better. Good learning curve though as it is the first time I’ve been through the process with TFW. Good luck to everyone still in the running.

Has anyone heard anything further about this role?

Many thanks. I suspected that would be the case.

I applied for this role. I haven’t had any rejection e-mail but the status of the application on the portal says “end of process”. Does this mean rejection or does it mean application process closed and my application is still being considered (I cling on to the vain hope that it is this). The...

Congratulations to you. That is fast indeed. I applied for Crewe on 14th April as well. Not heard anything so I reckon I have possibly dipped out then. I’m still trying to get my head around their recruitment process as no-one (me included) appears to have heard anything regarding Chester posts...

Thanks, I did ring them a couple of weeks ago and got the standard “we are going through them and you will be updated in due course “. I also applied for Crewe in April so just keep my fingers crossed.

I got told to ring main reception in Cardiff and then ask to be put through to recruitment. It did work eventually after a couple of calls. I ended up ringing as no replies received to messages sent. Let me know if you still need to contact them.

Has anyone heard anything in relation to the Chester vacancy further to previous posts? I applied for it and haven’t heard anything back to date. I fully appreciate the wording covering it may be a while but just wondering if anyone has heard now that it’s over three months since application...
