Hi Jayjay, i'm not sure if depot driver assessment is the same, i'm guessing it probably is, but i'd say just have a quick read of this thread as has a few tips, but overall i'd say just practice the material that you have been sent. If you practice this you'll be confident going into the assessment days. And just stay calm when doing the tests, don't rush them and if you make a mistake don't panic just move on.
Thanks Matty

I haven't received any test material though, how long before the assessment day does the material usually come?

Hi Jayjay, i think once the date is confirmed you should have received your practice material. If you've not got anything i'd chase them up asap as you don't want to go into the assessments without having the material

I received an email that said
"I can confirm that you have passed the online assessment and are now within a pool of candidates awaiting the next stage." Not heard anything since. (This was for Colchester).

Hi guys, I’m sitting my assessment tomorrow for “Trainee Depot Driver - Ilford” for Great Anglia but I can’t seem to find the location of the test centre? Does anyone know where it is? Or how I can find out. I’m stressed ‍♀️

I’d completely agree I have been for a few assessments and they always gave me all the information well in advance. The stage 1 assessments are usually held at the Stratford training academy .
