Have you heard anything back since your medical? Did they let you know you had passed or did you follow it up with them?

No nothing back mate, still sitting as medical passed and awaiting drug screening results .
I haven’t chased it up or anything like that as that is 2 weeks today since my medical and OH said it’s a week to 10 days usually, so not massively over the anticipated time. I may call next week if i haven’t heard anything

The process is definitely taking it's time - I passed the assessment day for Trainee Driver for the Peak Forest talent pool at the end of April and still haven't heard anything regarding possible DMI interview dates!
Trying to use the time to learn as much as I can about the company though

There doesn’t seem to have been much in the way of new adverts recently across TOC’s or FOC’s, all seems strangely quiet..

Just out of curiosity, have you had your contract sent through yet ?
I’m still waiting on that and I can’t hand in my resignation before I sign my contract, but I have a 28 day notice period and I don’t want to cut it too fine. I’m hoping it comes this week

How long did you wait in the pool Eddie77 ?
I entered in March and haven't heard a thing i did email HR but no response so left it, the managers at dmi did say Hr will not no anything more than your told at dmi. But i wanted that reassurance which i didn't get, so im of the mind now to just forget it until the new year then email again.
I was in the pool a couple of years mate, but that would have been due to COVID I’d imagine so I wouldn’t worry too much.
What I will say is, the HR department are really good so I’d have no qualms calling or emailing if you want to speak for some reassurance.

Thank you mate, this has been an ambition of mine for quite a few years so to finally be starting this career is really exciting and I can’t wait to start.
Not yet she said that it would be sent out to me once I’d confirmed I was accepting the offer.

i have an assesment day up in Doncaster coming up for DB, i was wondering if anyone can tell me if they conduct the MMI the same day as the assesments, the email says you may have an interview but just wanted to see if anyone has maybe done it recently and could shed some light as ive read different things.

Yes, the full suite of tests is done in one day, including MMI.
Have a good read through this thread and at the top of the forum page there is a search function. Any tests info you are not sure on, search it on there or just type psychometric etc etc..
