Im there for about 7:30 still nervous atm until im on train.

Anyone else fed up already of everyone they meet and tell them about the job replying "hey i know where to come to get free internet" hahaha

Hi,
I also start on the 3rd of July..
I'm from Leeds, I had my assessment at South Shields on the 27th April..
I also applied in January but this year mine was.

A hotel would be ideal, so long as its local or BT arrange some sort of bus or something

From what the guys who have already started in last few weeks have been saying. All travel is paid for as are your meals. You pick up your van on Friday and travel home and then use your van to get to and from training thereafter.
If you are put up in a hotel instead of Yarnfield a bus will take you to and from the hotel the first week at least.

Thanks for the clarification.. Do you stay at the training centre at Weekends?

"Also the lad mentioned that he doesn't get a list of jobs at the start of the day as he was getting stressed about if he would get them all done and he literally gets a job sent through as soon as he completes each job."

Lots of guys get one job at a time , its the way i like to work .

Yeah it means its possible to pick up assists for people which doesn't happen when you always have tours

Quick question - do they ask about pre booked holidays at the asssessment day?

I'm just worried I might be turned down later on because of holidays and possible difficulties fitting the training in

I've got an assessment on the 16th but holidays in July and end of September

Hi, I had my assessment on the 27 April, got the job aswell..
They asked me if I had any holidays booked on the assessment day, as well as on the phone when I got the call to say I had the job.

When they call you with your start date they ask about holidays then

Thanks for the replies should be fine then
