Glad somebody else is in the same boat.

I know theyve been pushing through some vacancies quickly recently so hopefully not to long till we hear.

Let us know if you hear anything :)

Quickly for you to sit in a talent pool, lol

Good luck folks!

Well im already in one for a different type of role with Northern, not looking so good for that though as its for control and they don't recruit that often! Another six months of what i refer to as hell ... Great haha.

Good luck to you too, fingers crossed time!!

Good to know other people are going through the same, good luck to you all!
I bet it is frustrating for those in the talent pool.

Will keep you posted and you do the same, would be good to keep in touch on what could be quite a long journey!:D

Definitely keep in touch, should be long but hopefully a positive outcome in the end for us both!!

Just a case of waiting for the next stage, the second step to the dream job!!

I know, just a waiting game now......would be good to progress all the way to a job and share the journey on this forum, which I have to say is fantastic.

Good luck mate.:D

Not heard anything either yet, but it did say it could take 4-6 weeks and it's only nearly 3 weeks since it closed. I'm not sure how well that timescale is stuck to in this industry. Where I'm working at the minute you tend to find out a lot sooner

Not heard anything back either but i expected as much as it will have been a busy time for them in general what with the franchise renewal and end of the financial year approaching. Just a case of remaining patient.

Not heard back either way yet. Is this normal? Or do they maybe interview some and see if they're suitable and work their way down the list so to speak?

You'd better call them. They tend to loose candidates data. Just keep calling them to find out, otherwise they pick people they know first of all ...

Oh Jesus I cant believe this. Been waiting for Leeds trainees for ages, my 6 months just expired. Im not here every day but I was checking the site every 2 days at least, (I thought) how did i miss this? How long was it up there for?

It was only up for a day. Didn't get sent out on the alert. Was a Sunday too.

Luckily for me I started filling in the application in straight away. The next day I was out enjoying the sun with the family and they emailed saying it was closing at midnight, but of a rush to do it tbh
