    Not really sure. Originally, as far as I can remember the assessment days consisted of group exercises, memory exercises (I think) and speed interviews. We all did the sort of speed interviews online back in November, I'm hoping there won't be anything else like that this time. So maybe its some...

    It would be a shame to withdraw this far into the process. There's usually more courses booked for future dates, definitely worth emailing Irene to ask, I'm sure she'll come up with a solution for you mate.

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    Did you do your stage 1 on Friday 14th? If so I think all the successful candidates have been allocated summer dates for the next stage (assessment days - stage 2) although these dates have not yet been identified. It is a seemingly long process and for those of us who did the stage one on the...

    Same for me to, guess we're all in the same boat. I'm hoping once we get a date for our assessment day the next 2 stages will follow fairly quickly. The guys who have had their assessment days last Wednesday and tomorrow should be having their DMI's (Stage 3) 9th-13th March and then their Driver...

    Received my email telling me I've passed the stage 1 assessments today, unfortunately all assessment days are now fully booked until bloody summer. Anyone else have to wait that long?

    What day did you have your stage 1? Had mine on Friday afternoon, still waiting very nervously. The guy said it would probably be around 10 days before they let us know!

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    Man that must have been so annoying!!! gutted for you, thank god they could fit you back in so quickly!!! I'm ok with the GBT test, I've been getting 11/12 lines consistently with a maximum of 1/3 errors over the whole test, I'm far more worried about the TRP part 1 test, the memory one. I did...

    Managed to get a cancellation for Friday at 1pm. Back to being nervous again. The test I'm most worried about is the TRP part 1 memory test, can just see my mind going blank on this one!

    Trainee Depot Driver East Midlands Trains

    Just had an email too saying that all the courses are now fully booked and that they'll send an invitation for either 9th, 10th or 11th of June when a venue is sorted. Which is very annoying, especially as I have a holiday booked for 10th June.

    Got an email this morning informing me that I've been shortlisted for the role, this is my 4th time of trying. As Papa said above I've checked through my application and tried to improve on it each time, looking at what they want for the role and how to incorporate that in to my responses...

    A career as a signaller

    Cheers for that, I'd kinda guessed from some previous posts that it can be a lengthy process. I've applied for a couple more positions since that one, hoping one may lead to an interview. More patience needed!
