We'll that wasn't so bad :)

How did you find it pal? You get asked many questions or was it a case of them telling you about the company? Just another wait now to see when your medical is.

It's a bit of both tbh mate, fingers crossed but not counting my chickens yet :)

Best of luck

I expected yet more experience based questions like some TOC DM interviews but more about you your work history what you know about the company why you want the job

Pretty much all six of us through then
Do you reckon we went to Watford earlier than some because we had stronger stage one passes or is that wishful thinking

Had my stage two yesterday. Just wondering on the average time it took for people to hear and I presume you heard by post?

It would also be interesting to see when people heard how soon the management interview was?

Took just over a week to hear and was a phone call then a letter to confirm managers interview

Believe it is email if unsuccessful

Never really discussed locations as I'm willing to relocate if needed, but If I do get a choice I'd prefer rugby or Peterborough as I'm from Leicester so I wouldn't have to move to far

You will have you height and weight taken. They will test your sight, hearing and blood pressure and also hook you up to an ECG machine. They will do a breath test for alcohol and a urine test for drugs.

You won't be told but you can nor ally request to receive the findings.

Bank holidays are generally not included. With southern you can claim them back or take the money for them. Unsure will have my contract soon so can advise you correctly
