    Scotrail Trainee Drivers (Ongoing)

    I’d say you’d be back to square one. Most passes lapse after 5 years but depend on the TOC/FOC

    Scotrail - Trainee Driver - Various (March 24)

    Did they invite you to the in person testing, or is it online testing that they use to whittle the numbers down? Good to see such quick progress for you.

    Scotrail Recruitment Profile

    I have had the same experience albeit I’ve not emailed them. Will be interested to hear what they reply to you with. I thought I’d been sifted out, but now unsure as to what’s going on. If you could share your update that’d be appreciated.

    Scotrail Trainee Drivers (Ongoing)

    My online application portal has now disappeared. Unable to log in - incorrect login details error message etc. Requesting a password reset does nothing to fix it. Does that likely mean I’ve been sifted out by anyone’s prior knowledge/experience?

    Question about emails and OPC records.

    OPC save the scores against your NI number so the email address should have no bearing whatsoever I’d imagine

    Avanti - Trainee Train Drivers - Multiple Locations (28/02/23)

    So if you, let’s say, have sat these (VSE & M7) before and passed them and are currently sitting in a talent pool with another enhanced operator then by sitting these with avanti then your talent pool place isn’t at risk if you fail? Or if you fail is your talent pool place at risk as the fail...

    Yeah it does seems vague. When I sat the VSE and M7 for Freightliner late last year there was a blurb in the email about having to sit both irrespective of previous passes etc. Was just curious if that same blurb, or similar, appeared on folks emails today

    Avanti - Trainee Train Drivers - Multiple Locations (28/02/23)

    Is there any comment on the emails for the VSE or M7 about existing passes / re-sits required for people that have already sat this?

    Avanti OPC assessments

    Don’t buy any material for these tests. Just sit them. They want to establish your natural traits. That’s it. No prep necessary. If you get to the paper / pencil / computer stages, yes buy practice material - but not now.

    Train Driver OPC assessments "2 chances rule"?

    As I understand it those operators who use enhanced standards seek you to pass the VSE and M7SJT at home before reaching the assessment centre stage. As I understand it each operator seeks you to pass these to their own scoring parameters. So they won’t rely on your existing passes for this...

    Avanti - Trainee Train Drivers - Multiple Locations (28/02/23)

    Did anyone receive an automated acknowledgment by email? I’ve received nothing since clicking submit. Although it does show up within “Application History” - just thought a bounce back email would have been received
