What was the DM interview like , can you give an insight or any help , I have mine soon .Got a conditional job offer for Bristol today, pending a medical which should be Ok.
Absolutely over the moon. A boyhood dream come true. Plan to spend the rest of my working life in this role.
Start in April.
Congratulations to all who have been successful, quick question to anyone who maybe able to help.
I've had my telephone interview and this morning I confirmed a date for my driver manager interview, the email stated that this was the final stage.
Does the driver manager interview happen before the psychometric assessments take place? Because I have previously passed the psychometric testing with db schenker however I was aware of the fact that I may have to retake it due to the standards changing.
Regards,
Kyle
Evening everyone.
So I had a call back from first hr today regarding messages and emails I have sent them. Basically having sat stage 2 in swindon on nov 13th, passings all tests and then sitting mmi, I have been sat for nearly a month with absolutely no contact whatsoever to indicate my interview results, hence why I called and emailed.
I have been told im still in a position where im been considered with no definitive answer. I have been told to call back end of dec if still no wordd.
Is anyone in the same position as me here?
Has anyone been in this position for so long before with no contact?
No not yet pal. They told me on the day id passed everything else then I sat the mmi. Since then ive heard nothing. How did u feel u got on with it btw

The DM interview is after the psycho tests so it looks like FGW are carrying the DBS pass over so you can breath a sigh of relief.
Just the (routine) medical after the DM interview so you are well on the way.
Contract signed, Uniform ordered. Anyone else start in Bristol on 6th Jan?
I was told that I'll start on 6th Jan with the training in Bristol, depot is Gloucester but I had a hiccup at the medical so it's all been put off time for me slightly.
Sorry to hear that mate. Was the issue anything serious? Hopefully you can get it sorted for April's course.
It was just eyesight, nothing serious - all sorted with an up to date prescription.
I've handed in my notice, so I hope to be on the January course as planned.
Im not sure what's happening really, so
It's a weird one this.
I attended the same day as someone else I know, infact I was in directly before them. However they recieved feedback 2 days ago, and I've had nothing.
His online status has changed to successful at interview/on hold
So u would imagine it will be just the waiting game for him now, until a proper course is organised.
I rang HR, and they said they are still awaiting feedback regarding my DM interview, how that can be the case I to not know coñdidering all of the above.
It really is frustrating and their seems to be an obvious lack of organisation, either that or just mega undrstaffed
could you post the HR number on here please. I tried calling FGW and the assistant said there is not number for recruitment. I know thats not true because i spoke to them a couple month back
I'm on the April course too mate so I'll see you there!
Nice one, haven't been officially told April, but the lass on the phone aid peons April so not counting my chickens too soon! Bristol aswell?
There is very likely to be a course starting on April 7th, as a few of my internal colleagues are also joining me on the course. I was speaking to a driver manager earlier too and they mentioned that the April course is already nearly full at this stage. I've also been released from my current role as a Guard with a replacement for myself already undergoing their training so I hope there is a course now!
Yup, I'm at Bristol too mate.
Ohh I bloody hope its April, cannot be doing with waiting longer. Ah well I will be moving down there in the new year so if I am on in April, we will have to have a per training beer! Saying April course us nearly full doesn't exactly inspire me however!!!
Has anyone who had their stage 2 around 25, 26, 27 of November been contacted yet?
I had mine on 3rd December and received an e-mail on 5th December to say I hadn't been successful.
I e-mailed to ask for feedback on which parts I'd failed but I'm still waiting to hear back.
I have no idea what that means for you, I would have thought that all those before me would have heard back first. Perhaps you're right on the edge and they're waiting to see how everyone else does? I'm not sure how it works but good luck x
No I still not heard and I sat a month ago. I contacted and they have said my application is still being considered. Thats all I know lol
