Given the current climate I'd expect unprecedented interest in trainee rolesYeah I understand that. I myself am a driver and know how hard it is! It aint easy at all! I thought maybe DB were taking on trainees but could not find it! Oh well got to keep looking i guess
Nothing to stop you keeping your options open? Even focusing on pilot training you can still apply for vacancies as and when.Not many around, very few trainee positions appear a year and the application window is usually less than a week, so even if you stop looking for a single week, you may miss out on one of the very few vacancies for the year.
I myself am going to go back to focusing on my pilot training as I fear spending years trying to get a trainee position is going to be a waste of time I hope your friend finds a position!
Hi guys. Hope your all well.
Anyone know of any trainee roles that are live at this time? Other than Avanti?
Not for me but for a friend who is interested. Been searching but cannot seem to find anything atm.
Please let me know guys.
Thanks.

Still have to pass the Relevant tests, there not gonna be just handed Train driver jobs.I feel with all the aviation pilots out of work and looking for imployment, the TOCs will take them straight in as GWR did with Ex-Thomas Cook staff. Unless i'm being pesimistic, getting in as a trainee is about to become a whole lot more competitive.

Skills are definitely transferable so they definitely have an advantage in the interview. However, as per requirements, they need to pass the psychometric testing in order to obtain a train driver’s license.I’m not a driver so I don’t know, but you’d think their experience and aptitude would be of a required level.
