I got an email saying I’m on hold to go to an assessment centre
Yes I had an email a few weeks ago saying that the vacancy is no longer a vacancy and if I was still interested I should keep an eye on vacancies on the website! This was almost six months after the closing date and I find this approach disappointingly dismissive. Interesting what has now unfolded in the news with a shortage of drivers being the main reason behind the nightmare that Northern are now in. I appreciate that there is more to it than this, with electrification delays, but more new drivers would surely have alleviated the shortages.Has anyone heard anything?
I think it's more drivers not trained on routes rather than a lack of drivers, I'm sure someone will be able to correct me if I'm wrong.

I just submitted the application, I hadn't heard anything about reaching the next stage. I have applied previously and reached the interview stage twice, but not progressed beyond that.I think it's more drivers not trained on routes rather than a lack of drivers, I'm sure someone will be able to correct me if I'm wrong.
