Congratulations, as for the medical ..... smart casual . How long has your journey through the stages been ??Hello everyone, I just want to thank everyone for all the information that I was able to read to help me during the application process.
I've made it all the way to the end, and I have been offered the job pending medical. Couldn't have done it without the information that has been available on this forum. Thank you!
I'm guessing there's no need to go suited and booted to a medical right?

I was told they have no vacancies at Colchester....i passed their online test and I'm good to go as I have already passed all the assessment centres. Are GA having a laugh?
Hi , just wondered how you know there are no vacancies? Also do you mean Cambridge and Ilford are most in need of applicants?Yes no vacancies at any depot mainline or depot.
But you have to look at this like this,
Each depot likely had 10 mainline not even that and 5 depot again not even that available , places like ilford and Cambridge are most required.
Most places are filled by internal depot drivers wanting mainline and some by internal candidates and the rest by external
Well congrats again , good luck with the medical .Sorry for the late response, been a little occupied. I applied end of April, so I feel as though I'm one of the lucky ones.

I know you must be frustrated, as I've already said I consider myself to be rather luck with how quick this process has been. When did you do the stage 1 and 2 assessments? Also when did you apply for the GA vacancy?Well done and goodluck by the way! Sorry if I sounded angry in my previous post, just frustrated!
How did the medical go? Was it in Stratford??I know you must be frustrated, as I've already said I consider myself to be rather luck with how quick this process has been. When did you do the stage 1 and 2 assessments? Also when did you apply for the GA vacancy?
Which depot?What is the training pay salary and salary after training plz

Adam, what did the medical entail?
Yep pretty much that. Pretty sure people will know if they will fail before even taking it. I was certain I'd pass.Just the normal tests. Colour blind test, ecg, drugs/alcohol, hearing, Co-ordination, blood pressure etc. Nothing out of the ordinary mate

I literally found nothing to worry about. You've got to have terrible eyesight to fail the eye test same goes for hearing. If you go docs regularly and they've found nothing alarming, everything will be fine lol.
I got so nervous for my medical I shot my blood pressure through the roof and had to see my GP. Bloody white coats.
Nothing to worry about.
