    Freightliner Various Trainee Drivers

    Thanks everyone. I'll be based at Trafford Park. The documents came by email. Yeh they had me sit the DMI again in November because I'd been in the pool for so long, and my medical was in February.

    Got the phonecall and job offer today after being in the pool for just over 2 years, after having to do the DMI a second time for being in the pool so long. Seems unreal. I'd started to think it would never happen.

    I hope it's at Crewe too. And I agree, another interview doesn't bring me any joy, just another hurdle to possibly stumble at. I'll give it my best, what else can you do. When I passed the psychometrics and interviews, the people who passed at the same time as me and got courses quickly didn't...

    Freightliner Various Trainee Drivers

    Hi Everyone. I have been in the pool now since December 2018, was told I wouldn't be waiting long....... Got offered a potential start in Crewe in January this year only to have it retracted a day later as they emailed the wrong person. I have pretty much given up hope entirely now, when I...
