Hi guys,

Just wondering if anyone knew anything about the vacancies advertised on the FTPE website, in particular when they are likely to start needing drivers? I'm thinking of applying for one of the roles.

Cheers,

Based in the south buddy, rather not say where on here. Only a guess but I suspect everyone will want to go to York. Haha. Good luck if you do apply

Talking to a former colleague whose with TPE, the number of Drivers required will depend on productivity talks, if the next proposals get rejected then more Drivers will be required, this is for service enhancements in 2018.

Got the email too, not done it yet. Speaking to people on the last intake, they didn't do an online test, but this time around response has been massive, particularly from Freight men. So I think all applicants will do it to sift it down a bit.

Yhea I can understand that then makes sense I suppose, However Its the first time I have done a transfer safety, Maybe I am stupid I grew up with ''apple computers and an abacus'' but I have had to print the record fill out and then scan it back in so I can email it? please tell me I am not the only numpty who did this as it downloaded as a PDF Even my other half agreed it was the only way to do it :roll:

Anybody heard anything. Did the online assessments but had zero correspondence with a yes or no regarding progressing to the next stage
