I think that’s where and why I’m confused. The Arriva London Overground website and email documentation suggests the MMI is done on a second day, but the practice materials (which are from the opc) suggest you complete the SJE and MMI after one another....was hoping that someone who’s already attended a stage 1 with Arriva London Overground would be able to say definitively!

Oh well, just have to go in to it expecting the MMI Just in case!

I’m at the assessment day tomorrow morning. Working Nights tonight, but taking a half shift off (not ideal I know, but couldn’t get the whole shift off!) so that I can get some kip before the assessment centre.

Good luck to anyone else that’s attending tomorrow. See some of you there!

Out of interest, is anybody else still waiting to hear back regarding this position, or have had a 'thanks but no thanks' message?
I applied but had some computer issues that meant I eventually submitted on the closing day. I've yet to hear anything so assume the worst but there has been no change on my Arriva account - only entry says 'application submitted' and then the date and time.
I see many are attending assessments tomorrow so guess it's a nope for me

So you don't start until april then. so you had interview before second assessment, my e mail say's that we will probably do second day next week.

What did you find the hardest stage??

I did'nt find it hand so to speak! just do your homework (all the info and more is on this forum. Listen carefully to each instruction for each assessment and concentrate 100% fully on what you need to do.

You will always find yourself second guessing yourself, unfortunately that's after the assessment.

I wasn't there, I asked because reading through the forum I could see that you had your assessment today.

Hey Baz, thanks for the speedy reply. When you say you was told today, by ARL? if so, by email/phone?
