That’s what I was thinking…2 drivers!That seems rather low for a recruitment drive - where did you obtain those numbers from?

I had my interview yesterday. After the interview during Q and A I asked the driver managers.That’s what I was thinking…2 drivers!
general interview questions, company knowledge, why you want to be a driver and examples off situations youve been in. One was gathering information and relaying it, facing difficulty, cant really remember anything else. hope this helps you prepare!What was asked in the interview?
what depot you applied for?This is a reply I got from Chiltern today when asked about the next step VSE
Marylebonewhat depot you applied for?
No haven't heard anything but application is still in process. I applied for Birmingham Moor Street back in mid August. You applied for Marylebone?Anyone heard anything from HR? Or regarding interviews
My application, for Moor St, now has the title of XC Trainee Train Driver (Aylesbury) on my db careers portal account. I can only assume that the name change is some sort of oversight or error. I also have an actual XC trainee driver application also showing 'in process' so I have no idea what has gone on there.No haven't heard anything but application is still in process. I applied for Birmingham Moor Street back in mid August. You applied for Marylebone?
Has anyone received any further update on this? I applied but haven't received any further updates and the portal still says application on process.
13/08/2021 - Trainee Driver Advert for Chiltern Railways just released for London Marylebone & Birmingham Moor Street.
Are the courses towards the summer for Moor Street and Marylebone? I’ve checked my application for Moor Street and it still says application in process so I wonder what’s happening and when Chiltern will invite for the assessments and interviews?The 2 appreciate driver places for Moor Street depot (February course) have been filled and the course is supposed to start next week. There's supposedly another course towards the summer.......

My start date is 15th AugustHi all,
anybody who got through this and has had a start date of 25 July, be aware (after me chasing them) I have just been told the course has potentially been put back to August 15, I'm awaiting a call back though as I've heard nothing from them really, and I'm already working my 8 weeks notice.
I’ve had an email confirming mine is now as well.My start date is 15th August
I’ll see you thereI’ve had an email confirming mine is now as well.
@porksandwhichI’ve had an email confirming mine is now as well.
what depot did you go for? I applied for Birmingham Moor Street.@porksandwhich
Great news well done! Congratulations!!
I had my interview in the last few days. My DB account under “your applications” says “assessment”. I’m not sure what it said before as I didn’t check (I applied like 9/10 months ago)
What are your thoughts? You reckon I got through the interview and onto the assessments stage? I haven’t heard anything back since the interview so the anticipation is killing me.
I’m still not counting my chickens just yet call me a cynic!I’ll see you there
I’m assuming you’ve had your offer letter?I’m still not counting my chickens just yet call me a cynic!
My application was quite some time ago too. Was 5 days after my interview before I was invited to do my assessments.@porksandwhich

Has anyone started as a driver with Chiltern Railways based at Birmingham Moor Street or London Marylebone yet?
