Just received this email:
Dear Candidate
Thank you for submitting an application to GTR/2271 Trainee Train Driver. We have received over 3600 applications for this role and due to our recruitment requirements for this year, it will not be possible to process all of the applications. Therefore, your application will be placed on hold until the first batch of candidates have been assessed and passed through the process. I expect the first phase of recruitment to take around six months. We will keep you updated with the progress of your application over the coming months. I’d like to thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
Kind regards GTR Recruitment Team
