This is quite intriguing as there is currently a talent pool for Paddington but good news in terms of things moving again.Hi all, just received email from GWR with invite to book zoom interview!!

I actually forgot about this as I've applied for the position last march!!! lolThis is quite intriguing as there is currently a talent pool for Paddington but good news in terms of things moving again.
If you've passed the assessments then the interview will be a DMI, as to the best of my knowledge, GWR don't do a pre-interview.

I already have OPC from 2018, but not sure how long it is valid for?
Was just thinking interview with managers is usually last stage so I'm hoping that's it if I pass?
Yes i have passed MMI too so hopefully this will be last stageI received similar email last November after applying almost 2 years previously and did my DMI in December.
The tests are valid for 5 years with GWR so this will be the last stage (assuming you've also done the MMI). Good luck!
So did I, have you sat the assesments previously?

Heyy @Lenny_U How was the pre interview? Can you share some details of what they asked? Would be interesting to compare this to the phone interview they used to doHi all, just received email from GWR with invite to book zoom interview!!

Hey, I think they're doing full interviews now. Is it that if you pass the interview you get into the talent pool then?
Hi. If this is a DMI it's essentially like a company interview. Know your stuff about the company, what the job entails and how you intend to approach the training and challenges that might be involved. Also be mindful of basic punctuality and how you might answer any questions around time management, professionalism etc. Don't be afraid to ask any questions you might have too, as this will help express your interest in the role. Best of luckDoes anyone know what to expect ?
I had my initial zoom interview on Thursday and I’ve just received an email saying there are putting me through to the next stage
Just got another email now got a full interview on the 15th June
Yeah I passed them with another company 2 years agoPresumably you have previously completed the Psychometric Assessments?
They sent me this email on November 2020 and haven't received anything after. Is there any new update ?Hi all, just received email from GWR with invite to book zoom interview!!
