I would definitely say practice is key. I remember my first few goes getting about halfway down the page and only getting about 50% correct. After a few weeks of practicing a few a day I was down to the last few rows but getting 100% give or take the odd error. Practice practice practice. Good luck.

One more thing. I’ve completed all of the online stuff and sent off my signed contract. Is there anything else that should be expecting contact wise or is that it until nearer the start date? Just wondering if I need to check my emails every hour lol.

Thanks for the advice :)

How’s the training going Ebee? Start at HEX 24th Feb :)

Looks as though people are getting their offers two months before their start which would be December for us. Just a thought

Same position as you mate, waiting for the formal offer. Haven’t spoken to GWR yet what have they said to you about when theyre coming out?

ah fair enough thanks for the update I’ll let you know if I hear anything

23rd Feb if I remember correctly, still got a while yet. Are you a December course?

Hopefully the HEX contracts come out soon then!

Congrats.. nice to know they are starting to come out. Did you get an email or was it posted?

No idea where the course will be. The HR lady told me it will likely be varied locations based on what type of training.

Yeah i did it at reading. Think it was at 10am if I remember correctly. HEX how about yourself? Yes I believe it was mid February some time. I’m sure I was told the 23rd but that’s a Sunday so can’t be right. The phone call took me by surprise so it’s all a bit of a blur haha.

Great thanks. Yeah I was told February so expected a little wait just wondered if the formal offers would be out. Yeah mine was the 25th as well.

Anyone had any feedback from the September Medicals? Doc passed me as fit for work so just wondered what the next phase would be. Uniform fitting was done the same time as the medical.

Yeah from memory it was initiallly a trainee train driver for Paddington. As my application progressed it changed to HEX. Yep. Maybe see you there!

Thank you! Was told over the phone it will be the 25th September and to expect an email in the next few days.

Just had the call...conditional offer for HEX starting 23rd Feb subject to medical. Really can’t thank this forum enough for the invaluable help. Over the moon.

They didn’t specifically mention any upcoming courses. I forgot to ask at the end as well annoyingly!
