Well done for passing your interview. Congratulations for making it this far.Hi I am wondering if anyone / knows anyone who was put into a 12 month Talent Pool but never got a start date? It hasn't been that long for me (October) since I found out I was in the talent pool, but I am just worrying that I will never hear haha.
After some reassurance
I applied for Valleys and Cardiff.
Cardiff is a huge depot with a lot of turnaround and movement as staff go on to become drivers, move depots or go into other areas.
Cardiff has the quickest start date for candidates being anywhere between 3 weeks and 3 months. Others on this forum thread only waited like a month or 2 before hearing of a start date. Most likely you will be looking at starting in the new year i imagine around March/April time but dont quote me on this as depends on needs of the depot and availability of training courses.
They will call you and email you to offer your start date and medical etc. you can always send a polite email to say you are still keen and interested to start. Use an existing email you have received from the recruitment team to reply back to.
