Failed Visual Search Exercise twice

[skyhigh]

So ive failed VSE once can I still become a train driver?

I would love to earn the high salary.

Do companies pay overtime ?

If you're solely in it for the money you're going to struggle, in my opinion.

its usually those who go in solely for the money are the ones that become a cropper first

Have you read this thread?

Is there any other reason you want to be a driver other than the salary and overtime?

Well he’s “on moderation” and is only five posts in apparently

No worries. I applied to a lot of TOC’s before I got my first offer. Only one required me to do a VSE. To be honest I did find it challenging and although I passed it I didn’t think I had. The trick is probably to get back on track quickly if you make a mistake. I now have a job as a trainee driver but the VSE had nothing to do with it.

I've literally just completed a VSE online at home just now and I have mixed feelings about how I did. I feel like I did pretty well in part 1 and part 2 no worries there and I feel I that it was near the end of part 3 about 10seconds before the where I made like a 1 mistake on the track and maybe like 4/5 on the shapes. Everything was going swimmingly before. Guess I'll have to wait and see when I get a the email from Arriva. The deadline was 19th so will be quite a way I reckon.

Hi, can you explain to me little bit about the test, is it similar to the one they sent by email. And how many minutes they give you. Because I have to do mine by 16h 19/05 thanks

The test I done was the one by email. I didn't see any time limit as such however, there is a counter going up in seconds so just work as quickly and as accurately as you can and try not to get thrown off if you make a mistake. I've heard it's the same as the stage 2 test.

Thanks. I will do it tomorrow. . If we pass this test. Do we need to go to a test center for the same one?

The VSE is only done again as part of stage 2 at an assessment centre.
