I’ve applied for Liv St too and wow does that put things in perspective

Wow! Thank for your reply! I assumed it would be a lot but didn’t expect that many

Good Luck with your application!

 

[ILoveLamp]

Very - expect close to two hundred other applications and you won't be far wrong!

Grade 9 job, in London, with many people looking for new jobs due to Covid and with Network Rail advertising via Indeed to every person looking for a job....I’d be surprised if it’s ONLY 200!

 

[olilee2]

Good Luck with your application!

And to you too, looks like we’ll need it!

Applications for signaller jobs have increased significantly in the last few months. It will definitely be well over 200.

I was wondering for anyone that has done a skype interview in recent months how long before the interview date do HR tend to send the instruction on how it will be hosted etc?

Thanks for your reply LOM here’s hoping I still stand a chance. Will there be any internal candidates included as well?

I got my details and links direct from the recruiting LOM so perhaps ask HR for his/her email maybe?

Actually that’s a total lie. I got it from HR - sorry for the duff info.

Yes. the visitor spaces are next to the security gatehouse. Ring the buzzer on the post by the gate, the guard will let you in and show you where to park.

I haven't been for a couple of years, but yes there was. If in doubt give your LOM a ring.

 

[waterlooroader]

Hi, I also applied for the WMSC vacancies and have been offered an interview in a few weeks, although interestingly mine is scheduled to take place at New Street PSB.

Time to start brushing up on those NTS!

This thread has been a goldmine of useful information, many thanks to everybody who has contributed.

Fair enough. Don't forget to reverse park, in accordance with Network Rail policy.

Is this something I should have read, or been requested to read? Worried what else I may have missed!

No I don’t think so, don’t worry.

All the best buddy and I hope it goes well for you... although I did just have to double, and then triple check that mine wasn't at New Street PSB

Haha I wondered this too - I seem to recall it was marked up everywhere when I went for my interview. Slow in, fast out!
