It would be good if they just allocated people to courses throughout the new year with an even spread of each depot's. At least then we could get one with planning next year with current job, holidays etc.

Interestingly, I had an email from WMT regarding an application I submitted for a Trainee Driver back in April-ish time saying I have passed the Application Sift!

Hey guys I hope you are all doing well
I’m yet to hear absolutely anything I’ve completed the application on the 5th of November but ever since then nothing but the confirmation email. I have sat and passed all the driver assessments and the MMI 11 months ago and they were enhanced tests for Crossrail. What’s really keeping me on edge is the radio silence I’m getting. Long story short I just want to know if I am the only person in this position. Also congrats to everyone who’s made it through so far :)

GMT I'm guessing I recognise the name from a GTR 1878 forum? How did you fare there?
Yes, that's me. I received a rejection email about three weeks ago. I had already passed assessment stage 1 and DMI with them at the end of 2016 (Gillingham depot) but still at the same time I had failed stage 2, the MMI. I guess they were keeping me as a spare wheel. Once they filled all the available spots and the recruitment journey was over they got rid of the spare wheel. I also suppose I wasn't close enough to Orpington depot.

It’s weird how not many people on the forum have said they have medical! Maybe they inviting people all week.

I think most have had their medical or are newer applicants, that's just leaves three of us who have been asked to take a medical and only a couple who haven't.

I thought that was the case. Clearly people that were pencilled in for the February course didn’t get the general email. Getting nervous now... hope we all get jobs lol
I got the said email, and also the medical email .

Sounds like this feb course will be a southern course and midlands one.
I don’t think anybody for Birmingham has confirmed a medical email today. It’s horrible waiting to find out your fate for this period of time, really tests your nerves :-0
