I've applied for the Bristol vacancy, even though I live in Cardiff. They've still taken me through to the telephone interview, which I have on Wednesday. Any tips/advice?

I have sadly not been accepted for it. Has anybody been successful?
Hi Dan,
My Phone interview is tomorrow, my best advice would be to stay clam and collected, and answer any questions with confidence to seem like the ideal candidate. Best thing is to ask questions yourself, then you seem interested to learn more about the Apprenticeship and more keen. Beware though, there is a fine line between 'keen' and 'overenthusiastic', so make sure you don't sound cocky otherwise this could lead to a swift exit. Just be yourself, that's what they want and make sure you sell yourself as exactly what they need.
Good luck!

Ive got a telephone interview tomorrow for he Plymouth apprentice role
How did you both find the interview?
It wasn't easy as I only got 15 minutes and ideally I had prepared to say a lot more about myself but I feel it went well. This was then justified by an email to me this morning stating I had passed. Hoping the next stop is the Assessment Centre, of which I have already been to one for the Yard Team Member position and passed that so I'm hoping for the best for this one too.
I was unfortunately unsuccessful in my phone interview, however according to a friend that works for GWR, although you can't apply to the same position for six months, you can apply for a different location.
Can anyone confirm this?
Same. I thought it was just for that role. Surely we can apply to any other role within six months?
