No, not yet. Laura didn't mention that to me when I spoke to her a couple weeks back. But I read it somewhere that it would be on teams and the course trainers would be in touch.
Probably come the week before that mate. It’s a company wide induction with all different grades on it. Brutal but necessary! Good luck
No uniform or pass yet, hopefully get it soon. I'll keep you updated if/when I receive it.
Don't worry, passes and uniforms don't normally arrive until after you start - several weeks after in the case of uniform. You'll be given some form of temporary travel pass to get you to and from training in the meantime.
I'm in the same situation, all paperwork gone in and waiting for pass, uniform and teams invite for the company induction.
Hi Neil,
Hi Jacob
Trainee Driver role or Shunter Driver?
Shunter driver
Oh brilliant! Well hopefully we hear back soon! Need to start practicing them haha! Got a general idea as I've tried the tests in the past just to see what they are like. Nice to know someone else who went for it!
Just emailed Laura, we should be getting induction invites this week. That’s if you are starting 5th Sep.
That's good to know.
Yeah I’ll keep you up to date if I hear anything mate
Thank you for the heads up
Yeah I had that email this afternoon as well
Did you all get an email from the Trainer yesterday?
Yep, can't wait to start now!
Certainly did. Any idea what smart/ business wear is? Haha!
Shirt and trousers. Tie if you wanted. No trainers or jeans/polo would be my understanding
Nope, I asked about it and got told that they can issue a temporary one if it hasn’t arrived before starting.
Royal Mail postal strikes may be a contributory factor if passes are being posted out…….!
Well, already closed lol, missed out by a day... that's what I get for skipping checking here I guess.
Good luck. On the last couple of weeks of the course now, been great so far.
In Chester tomorrow for my medical, I applied August 2020 too. Good luck!
