Myself and quite a few other people applied for this role in January last year. Ended up sitting about 3 different assessments and questionnaires to never hear anything back.
I’m surprised they haven’t sent any emails out to these candidates about this recruitment drive.

Not even bothering applying for Chiltern roles anymore, they never get back to you. I've got ones showing as assessment on my portal yet never been contacted. Isn't worth the hassle
From applying for them before, their emails were quite vague. I got ghosted by them too.
This time however they’ve been very specific as to when we’ll hear for the next stages, and so far they’ve stuck to it.
Nope!
I’ve had the same email today my commute is 25 minutes and 13 miles so I think something’s gone wrongHad a rejection based on distance from Moor Street. Which is bizarre as another driver based there lives in the same close as me
Good luck all!
I had the same rejection, based on commute but live within the 60 mins.
I did email back but got a standard reply saying the same thing.
On the original application I think the question was wrong because it asked if you lived within a 45/60 minutes commute of Marylebone. I wonder if this has anything to do with it?

Depends how long they've been driving. The 45 minutes commute rule is a relatively recent introduction.

Have they said what will happen then as there seem to be quite a few that have had mistakes
It just said the application will be progressed and will hear back.

Good news then! Hopefully it goes well
Same as you
last thing I did was fill out the diversity questionnaire. No SJT was ever sent
After searching my emails, I had an email for it weeks ago that I didn’t see. Whoopsy

Afternoon, new here, I applied for this role, completed the SJT a couple of weeks ago and this afternoon received confirmation of passing the second stage questionnaire.
I will be invited in due course to attend OPC Watford for opc stage 1 testing. Dates and times are to be confirmed.
Hopefully some of you will be joining me.

Have you recently passed a VSE? I thought that was the next stage if you were successful in the SJT? Congrats either way!
