That’s good news ! Which depot are you waiting for ?Hello all, first post here. I have finally calmed down from receiving the great news that I successfully passed all OPC assessments including MMI. For now I have been told to hang tight for a start date which is expected to be in the new year. (A great test of patience!)
This site has been absolutely invaluable and I just came on here to say thank you, and I hope I'll be able to offer help where I can going forward.
That’s good news ! Which depot are you waiting for ?
The best news, congrats!I received that amazing phone call today that I passed all my OPC assessments and MMI. They also told me to hang tight for a start date most likely to be January or February next year. I’m over the moon still can’t believe it especially as it was my first time applying.

No not internal either.Hi both, can I just ask are you guys internal hires as it seems the way that the recruitment has been going recently
Thanks
Also congrats to all that have had start dates confirmed
Thats encouraging news, which depot did you apply for?No not internal either.
I've just checked my DB portal and noticed that my application is nowhere to be seen... The last communication I received from them was an email back in December telling me to standby for any more news. I also applied for Bristol.Just gone to my portal to check my application (for Bristol) is still ‘Application in Progress’, but now saying I haven’t applied for any jobs! I passed the RAAT on Dec, but not heard anything since. Has anyone else’s changed without any notification?
Has anyone got a contact number for XC Recruitment so I can ask for feedback/what’s going on please?
Thanks 068. I hope that's the case!As far as i am aware, experienced this myself last year...Apparently it times out on the system but does not mean your application is no longer live or unsuccessful.
I enquired this with my application 12 months ago and HR said what ive mentioned above.
Hope this helps
Hi Mate,I've just checked my DB portal and noticed that my application is nowhere to be seen... The last communication I received from them was an email back in December telling me to standby for any more news. I also applied for Bristol.
Only contact I could find was; [email protected].
Going to send them an email now!
Thanks mate. I'll check in with them too.
Nothing heard at all since passing the RAAT. I have emailed them but nothing.Whats happening with Bristol depot has anyone heard anything for Bristol yet?

No still waiting for them to contact me .Was originally told January or February time when they called me to say I had passed.Has anyone who’s passed all their tests (and waiting for a medical and start date) had any information as to when the start date may be for the training courses?
Yeah I know I have been trying to get an update from them but no joy as yet. like you say it’s fast approaching and need to get stuff sorted if it’s to go ahead early new year. I hope we will find out more info soon,I assume they are busy with the new recruitment drive and waiting on finding out priority from individual depots?Yeah same for me, just curious that’s all; that date is fast approaching! Seems like we’re in the same boat, thanks for replying though
Fingers crossed it’s soon. I think, from people I’ve spoken to is the amount of courses that are available and then that links in with which depots need the courses first etc.Yeah I know I have been trying to get an update from them but no joy as yet. like you say it’s fast approaching and need to get stuff sorted if it’s to go ahead early new year.
