I got rejected because I weigh over 18st. 6'4 so not exactly rotund but still...Thanks pal. Apparently there were 'candidates with a skillset more suited to the role' according to the email I got. I have 12 years experience as a bus driver Not that I'm bitter about it, if there was only 1 position available and they had multiple applicants with similar experience, or if they have filled it internally, then that's fine. Just wish they'd say that rather than a bog standard copy and paste email.
Indeed a Solo on that run sounds torturous. I often think that when I see Borders Buses Optare Versas going from Melrose to Edinburgh as well!
Job has been up for over a year on and off, must have unbelievably high standards!
