Snap. I'm staying there. No parking though! Looks to be an interesting hotel but ideally located.

Me too. I'm a bit confused about this. I've def got MMI first. Maybe some people have passed the MMI previously?

I wouldn't worry Im sure I saw on another post that they were doing mmi first as its part of the pyschometrics and you need to pass everything before getting a job offer. But I guess some do mmi some do dmi first im sure its no biggie

After our assessment day (all paper and computer tests same day) we were told next we would do the DMI THEN MMI. I think some people willl be doing it differently as they were unable to do all assessments on the same day.

It looks like 1404 is different from previous recruitments. I had my assessment day last Wednesday and it was all the tests apart from computerised ones. The second stage with computerised, situational judgement and MMI will be held in Watford (mine is next Friday).

In my group there were 18 guys and 9 of us passed. As I asked the friendly black guy who welcomes you at the reception the assessments started last Monday and 1st two days it was similar: out of around 20 guys 8 passed. I also talked to the lady about the second stage in Watford. Apparently, they plan 2 weeks of the second stage: between 26th June and 7th July. On each day there should be 6 guys as they have so many computer sets. That would mean in these 2 weeks they would examine 60 guys of the 2nd stage (incl.MMI).

Yesterday I looked at the GN website and found info that they are going to reach the number of 415 qualified drivers this year. Anybody knows how many they would take from 1404?

Hi Gary,

When I passed stage 1 last week they gave the last standing a letter with the stage 2 date on it. Mine is on the 3rd July, so you don't have a choice in that respect, but the lady did say at the time that if it wasn't convenient for you then to let them know and they would try to arrange a different date, but not guaranteed.

Hope that makes sense.

Thankyou, I have my stage one assessment on the 18th July and if I pass I was a bit worried as I'm away in Germany 2-3 weeks after.

Cheers
Anyone else on the 18th July? I haven't seen anyone else mention this date.

I'd be careful as my stage 2 is exactly 2.5 weeks after my stage 1. You'll just have to wait and see.
