You will indeed recieve G2 whilst training
The expectation is that you will apply for vacancies whilst at Initial signaller training as well .
If you get to the end of initial signaller training without a position your manager will chose a location for you to learn - this may be above a G2 but probably only upto a G4 . You will get paid the grade of the location when you pass out there . You still wont have a permenant job at that location and will still need to search and apply for jobs .
