Has anyone had email confirmation of their success at the interview stage? I was told I'd get an email by the end of the week to upload details on there for a talent pool as it was confirmed the September course is cancelled. But have yet to receive the email

Yeah just a phone call confirming successful atm, I believe we will all get access to a new portal soon

No mate, still nothing heard

Spoke to a few people that I know. They've just passed out loads of new drivers at NXG which is annoying as nothing was said when I enquired recently. But atm they're not giving anything away other than recruiting for qualified drivers for Willesden Junction. Frustrating to say the least.

We're expecting 5 Experienced and 5 Trainees at Willesden to start in Jan. Next NXG course is expected to be April as far as I know.

Is everyone who passed the DMI for NXG on here or does anyone know of others that have passed and are not on this forum?

There are always going to be people who have passed but are not on these forums.

[moonie95]

Of course there can be, and it’s the reason I asked, some may know others who are not on here. Just wanted to see if anyone knew rough numbers.
Thanks for your amazing input though

I know someone else who’s off the forums.

Hey, they’re both closed now. NXG was last year and Willesden was recent but closed really quick
