It means you’ve been provisionally offered a job subject to medical, assigned to new vacancy means they’ve got you assigned to the post.
Don’t think we’re meant to check our status so often to be honest.
I’d call them first thing tomorrow to get it confirmed. Congratulations, welcome to the club !
@Narom Congratulations to you!
I received a reply to my email saying "The role is no longer available". I'll keep trying!
We'll see mate! Thank you guys for all the information though, it is highly appreciated!Exactly what I got from mine. HR won't go delving in or check with the hiring manager. Just keep an eye on it. You may be surprised like I was!

Incredibly helpful chap at recruitment answered the query easily.
Because I had applied for a position which was recruiting more than one a signaller it meant that I had to be split frok the initial vacancy on to a new one. That then enables them to put all my relevant files such as interview notes and the like into my own IRC and not a shared with the other successful candidate.
Makes sense when you think about it. Thankfully he also confirmed I've got the job!

Quick question regarding annual pay rise for NR signallers. Am I right in thinking they are normally issued in the new year, normally in the region of 3%? Is it a fairly consistent annual rise?

I’m really sorry to hear that mate, take it from one who knows - don’t give up or lose faith !

Thanks, with it being 12 months fixed term and a lower grade, I'm hoping there won't be as much competition.Good luck to you for that one! Hope everything goes well.
Fingers crossed dude!

I wouldn't say that it is "consistent", but whenever the talks between Network Rail and Trade Unions reach agreement then pay is backdated to a defined date. In the past a quick agreement has been reached early on into the year, but we've also dragged it through half a year before an agreement is achieved.Quick question regarding annual pay rise for NR signallers.

Pay is based on the November RPI figure. We are coming to the end of a two-year deal and negotiations have started. The current pay agreement saw in the first year, from 1 January 2017, an increase of 2.2% (equal to the November 2016 RPI figure), was applied. The Second year of a two stage two year agreement saw an increase of 3.9% (based on the November 2017 RPI) from 1 January 2018.
Hi all ... Any thoughts about being offered a 12 month fixed contract? Will they really spend 12 weeks training me for a year of work? Just having to consider my options, so any thoughts are very appreciated.
