Pete,as far as I know it's different to each depot/area. Earlies,middles & lates. New Yeovil depot = just earlies & late's (04.30,16.30).Hi all,
The question is in the title really - does anyone know what the shift patterns are like for SWR Commercial Guards? (equivalent to Train Manager).
TIA.

can i ask, what are the Maths questions likeBrynster,page down to page 3 to thread titled 'commercial guard assessment' for my previous reply. It explains the day(and saves me typing it again).
Very basic,nothing to worry about. I'm no wizz at maths and even I found it easy. A few add ones,a few minus ones,a few times ones. Some X + ? = X etc,etc. Don't stress over the maths test you will be fine. Are you going to Southampton for it. Which depot have you applied to. Good luck.can i ask, what are the Maths questions like

It wasn't to bad, do you know how the interview is likely to be structuredWell done on passing the assessment day. How did you find it, obviously ok as you passed. Any difficulty in any tests or not ?.
Your interview date came through quick which is good. Is it back at Southampton ?.It wasn't to bad, do you know how the interview is likely to be structured
Not structured as such,flows well.
Will be compentsy (sp) based a lot. So think of situations where you have worked as a team,followed rules,done something safely,showed good customer service. It will also be a help to know some of the companies history. Research back to maybe south west trains(swr now) or I did further to network southeast.
