Congratulations !!! ;) Have you applied in December or on a previous recruitment drive ? If it's December, then I'm impressed of how fast you went through everything. Good luck getting a starting date quickly !

Emails are happening again on mass from Southern, myself and 3 others have had a no from them but a yes from Thameslink! Keep an eye out...

No, this was back in March I think. I honestly can't remember exactly. So yeah it is a fairly long process!

It's very odd then. I live a 5 min drive away from Barnham and forty mins from Brighton but it's Thameslink I got the yes from , I haven't heard from Southern.

Yes! Last week. So nervous. You must be just behind me. I'm excited for you ☺️

I'm curious to see, after you receive the "you have passed" email, if they have available dates for assessments. Fingers crossed for everyone ;)

Has anyone got any idea how quickly they let you know if you have passed or failed the SJT? I did one last Sunday and heard nothing yet.

People have starts and some haven’t even had emails yet? That don’t make sense at all to me

There's a guy who is literally just in front of me and he's got an assessment day in Croydon. So full on tests like you'll do in the mini Scaat. After that who knows. When you doing your mini scaat? Southern or Thameslink? Best of luck

So it goes:
1 GTR Questionnaire
2 SJT
3 Mini Scaat
4 Psychometric Assessments
5 DMI
6 MMI

Sorry, I probably should have stated, I'm from a recruitment drive back at the start of last year and have completed all stages.

Does anyone know if there assessment centres are open? I’m stuck waiting for an assessment with 2 other TOCs so I’m praying they are open (and that I get a pass from my mini scaat!)

would be amazing to be at DMI state for 3
