They’ve told you all this before you’ve even had your medical?
Well we're only 3 days in... day 1 was an induction, days 2 and 3 were PTS - nice and easy as I'd done it for NR just recently. Manual handling today! Rules we don't start until the new year.How are you finding the training so far?

And two of those courses are already full with names.
How do you know that?
Probably because they've built a couple of weeks leave into the courses, they have with ours anyway.Crewe’s Feb course is now March...

Have they provided the accomodation and car for you? Seen some people mention on here...
Yeah basically if the training location is not your home depot then you get a car, a hotel room and all your meals paid forHave they provided the accomodation and car for you? Seen some people mention on here...
Hi everyone.
I sat my 1st round of assessments today and feel like it went well but didn’t get as many fault finder questions completed as j would have liked due to me having to correct a mistake.
I completed 7 in total, do you think this would have been enougth to progress to the next stage?

Certainly takes the sting out of the training salary!

Oh that’s a nice bonus! Hope it’s going well, are you guys getting any time off for christmas?
What hotel have they put you up in? Double or single bed lol
Have you heard anything? Not checked this forum for a while...Passed my stage 2 on the 17th in Crewe, still waiting to hear back about the mmi and dmi tho! Frantically checking emails every couple of hours lol. I was told you would hear back about the mmi within a couple of days then 7-10 days for the dmi anyone had any results from the same week yet?
Also was told they interviewing 6 people a day till Christmas!
Yeah, Christmas Day and Boxing Day haha. Then starting front end turns on the 27th
It's a nice enough hotel, will be different for you anyways as I expect your course will be in Crewe.
Unlucky better luck next timeAbsolutely gutted just received email from Freightliner.
Due to the high calibre and volume of applications we have received, I regret to inform you that your application has been unsuccessful.
I only did 8 ish and passed when everybody else I was reading aboytvwere getting 12s and 13s so don’t assume it’s not enough. You’ll probably need to get them all correct to pass with 7 though, I was confident all mine were correct.Hi everyone.

I would have got 9 or 10, however I corrected the first one a couple of times and lost valuable time. I felt the same as I think you did. Annoyed at myself as it was a simple mistake.Thank you Stigy
That’s made me feel a bit better as I have been beating my self up thinking that a little mistake has cost me my chances.
I am pretty confident that I got them all correct, will just have to wait and see.

Same here, I also asked about depots first thing yesterday morning, still no response.Has anyone had a reply from the Trainee Drivers email add?
I know someone said it is monitored, although you get the automated/generic “this vacancy is now closed” email which I’ve had.
I asked basically to confirm which depots they have me in the pool for.
I sent it on weds so I’m going to leave it until next week then phone up if no reply.
(Does anyone have the HR tel/contact details?)
