Had an interview yesterday. Didn't get good vibes. Was in for about half an hour. Only positive I took was at the end they asked if I had any holidays booked that could affect a possible start date. I don't know if they'd have asked that if I did as poorly as I think I did.

No, it's harder. As a conductor for 7 years I have had many interviews and I'be still not managed to get past DMI interview yet.

I've had a few interviews and always been asked that. Standard question. The thing is with interviews you just never know. I've had what I thought were good an bad and stI'll been knocked back. Other people have told me how terribly their's has went and still got through. You just never know.
Mine was yesterday and I was bricking it after being calm for the 2 weeks prior I had prepared well but felt I bottled it with nerves in there. Also got asked about notice period but think they just ask that and I had to be promted too many times, can’t see me getting any further if I do will be a miracle, didn’t help I was on strong painkillers for a virus and did not feel well at all good luck everyone!

To be fair I haven't been in an interview situation for 26 years! However one question they asked about health and safety courses I have been on and my mind went blank. Been an electrician for all that time and have been on countless bloody courses regarding health and safety. Halfwit!!!!

This will be the current process.
That's what I thought. The interviewer did say they were interviewing up to yesterday and they had been interviewing the week before so you would think next week would be the time to we all get the news. It's down to roughly 30% chance of a job based on the 180 at stage 2.

Thanks everyone.
Hi guys,
Good luck and well done to all those starting tomorrow.
I had my DMI about 10 days ago now, just wondering whether anyone from this intake has heard back either way yet? I know they were interviewing until Thursday just gone so not too stressed out about it quite yet.
Thanks

Nothing, aware they were interviewing until Thursday and assume they will require all feedback in before letting people know. Hopefully early this week.
I had my DMI last Thursday
There were two people in the interview and the main interviewer said that his colleague would butt in when necessary to expand but the whole interview he said nothing really apart from agree what I said on a few things
Not sure if that is a good or bad thing
Still waiting to hear so fingers crossed

Ok cheers it’s the waiting thats hard, I’m
I’m not the only one that is in suspense
Doubt it’ll be that long as when done initial assessment they were aiming for a May start for any successful applicants which would leave next to no time for the next two stages plus leave notice
