Talent Pool, I thought it was straight in as trainee, no mention in the advert for talent pool.ATW recruiting for trainee drivers for talent pools in Cardiff Central, Carmarthen and Crewe. Also looking for qualified drivers in those locations. Good luck to those applying.
The position I applied for (Trainee) had a closing date of 14 SeptYes it closed Sunday 16th for the Trainee talent pool positions
I’m sure you’ll do great!I also applied in a rush, first driver application I've done, hoping to get past the sift! Good luck all
Thanks, and good luck with your application. The reasons for applying seemed to flow quite well when I was writing it, but on reading it back in the cold light of day it comes across a bit rambling, and I also picked up a few grammatical errors I have learned from this and have saved a word document with coherent responses to these questions, so I can just copy and paste if I need to apply again in the future.I’m sure you’ll do great!
How did you get on with the ‘reasons for applying’?...definitely felt like I just rambled on haha!

The recruitment team must get so fed up of reading about how passionate we all are!
One thing that I'm keen to see is how the recruitment portal works when the ATW franchise changes in October, it's all Arriva branded at the moment, surely Arriva have no interest in keeping that recruitment site running when they no longer run the franchise.
I've applied for Cardiff, hoping there will be lots of opportunities around here with the South Wales Metro plans

Fingers crossedI also applied for Crewe, just hope I get through the first sift!
Apply and forget, nothing is ever quick with railway recruitment
It may be quicker than you think with the wales and borders franchise. The training school have been told they’ll be very, very busy from now on. Brilliant news for everyone here. If you fail/failed this time, keep at it and improve where you can. Good luck.
