Indeed they do! It’s a pass for me too! I guess I’m a lucky one in that I only applied last March and finally passed out today. All I’ll say to everyone in this thread is don’t get impatient. There’s literally thousands that apply for each role. Yes it’s took me less than a year from application to passing training school but equally it’s took some people 3 years. Especially with covid. The hubs are pretty full still at most locations but the recruitment team recruit based on future forecasts. Stick with it hope to see some of you on the iron road at some point. As for Amy top class colleague and has been great sharing the experience with you.I thought I would let people know that I have passed the classroom stage of training! Got the results of the rules exam today! So happy! Hopefully it won’t be long before people hear! The trainers do a lot of other things. They do ground staff training, they have training courses they need to do themselves, plus they need time off too so be patient!
May I add all other 9 trainees were top class people it’s been a pleasure.
Yeah we all passed which is awesome!
What depot and date chief?

Congrats mate! 3 years since you applied? Or have you applied previously and failed?

I had the same issue. It’s a GDPR thing. They delete accounts when they reach 6 months old, regardless of your status. Set up a fresh account and just email them to say you’ve done it. Your application won’t come back, but you’ll still be in their system.
Junior/trainee is £31380 qualified mainline driver once passed out is £55523
Where you based? Are you hoping to go to Toton instead? What date does Didcot start?
Im glad you managed to understand that message tired eyes and thumbs that day. Im starting at dicot on 15th may. I was wondering if you can change depot that you have applied for as in the early stages of my application i got offered acton but wasnt willing to move to london
I’ve emailed about a dozen times to ask if I can move my talent pool position to another depot and currently I’m banging my head against a brick wall.
Usually you would need to do another dmi with the managers of that depot, but i would be careful what you wish for its a fortunate position to be in a talent pool, asking them to move you may not go down well.
It’s because I’ve moved house, and it’s thrown me out of the 1 hour travelling time for the depot I originally applied for.
Where are you nearer too now?
